Let’s start with this tin man in Muncie:

There are only three Frisch’s Big Boy restaurants left in Indiana and only two of them have the statues. This one is in Richmond:

The Uranus Fudge Factory in Richmond has two of these Rex Uranus statues:

This Trojan statue is in New Castle:

This giant basketball shoe is also in New Castle:

This giant candle is at the Warm Glow Candle Company in Centerville:

The store has added a garden shop and this watering can is on the roof:

This giant chair is at a furniture store in Richmond:

This former Sinclair gas station is also in Richmond:

The downtown Richmond Power & Light office (in Richmond):

And the corporate headquarters on the outskirts of town:

Sad as this little building in Muncie is, it’s one just a handful left from the nationwide Picture Island photo developing company. Yes, similar to the slightly larger/different roof/base planters Fotomat kiosks, you dropped off your film to have it turned into printed photographs. The universe has sure changed since then! There are only about four of these kiosks in New York and I believe this is the only one in Indiana.

This sign in Cambridge City as it looked originally – my photo from 2009:

Well, the name has changed and the nice corrugated panel replaced but at least the bottle and neon bubbles are still there:

This sign is in Winchester:

Also in Winchester — this nice tile mosaic sign over the ground floor:

Let’s close with this bowling alley is in Connersville:

I’ll be back soon with even more Indiana. I still have about a week’s worth to go.

Happy Trails,
