    The Fredric Hotel downtown Kansas City

    $1.25 per night for a single seems quite reasonable.

    Thanks for the comments all, this negative sat around unprinted for a couple of decades and have to admit I was pretty pleased with it when it came off the printer.
    The thing I especially like is the "NEW" as a permenant part of the sign.

    If you took that shot again, from roughly the same vantage point, I think it would be quite an interesting diptych.

    This one was fun to clean the dust off because of all the detail. I found all kinds of interesting stuff in the windows, etc... 4x5 film is really amazing. My wife and I love looking at old fotos with a magnifying glass.

    This one is "A Pole-r Division" its the back side of the best hardware store in Kansas City.
    Not as good as it used to be though.

    comments welcome
    I love how this presents as a harmonious collection of shapes and tones while at the same time being completely 'straight.' It's got both subject and form working for it, and on top of that appears complete unforced. It's not just good, it's perfect!

    Most like there was an original hotel called the Fredric which was torn down or otherwise went away and this one replaced it. Thus no matter how long it lasted, it would foreverafter in local terms be called the "new" one. At least that's how things were often called "new" back in Tennessee. We had a "new highway" that had been there for at least 20 years, but it was the one that replaced the "old" highway, which was also still there. So if going to the nearby town you'd say you went via the old road or the new road. Then a really new four lane was built so you had the really new road, the old road that used to be the new road, and the really old road. Ok, those last names were my sarcastic ones of the time. They never really caught on.
