20 cents a dozen? Wow, that is a really good deal. I can picture exactly the same woman today but with a phone rather than a newspaper.

I am from a border town Cerca de el estado tamaulipas. Tamales are a staple.

I am afraid I have eaten too many tamales in my life, and you can definitely tell by looking at me. I once heard that 1 tamal + 1 cup of atole (atole always goes hand in hand with tamales) can have more than 2,000 calories; the average caloric intake required for an entire day.

Is that a Bartolini in the neck of the bass, and a Nordstrand in the bridge?

No, all the PU's and other hardware are cheap Chinese stuff I got over the years - just trying to use it up until I'm too old to keep building (soon I'm afraid.)

Escher inspired?
JR

No. He used some rhombille tiling, but my inspiration came from a friend's cutting board, and mother-in-law's quilting (tumbling block pattern.)

 

[pucho812]

nicely done on those instruments.

The pattern reminds me of the arcade q-Bert

The "skyline" of BissamCuttack where I was growing up..

I had to search where that is... Doesn't look familiar.

yup, very very far removed from civilization. But at least we had people being eaten by real tigers (early 1970'es)

Vintage Shelby 427. Signed by the legend himself. I believe this was a 1966.
