I guess I don't have any photos of strip malls (perhaps I just don't do much shopping ) Had to dig into the archives to find this one, it is kind of depressing. This was in Joplin, MO after the 2011 tornado. There is essentially nothing left of this building behind the facade.



How about a more happy shopping photo next.

Is shopping ever happy- My wallet disagrees .
Here's the Curio Shop at Zoo Lake, loaded with all kinds of stuff for tourists.


Something made of leather.

The lantern and pitcher are certainly made of sheet metal, and there's a good possibility it's tin although from a distance, impossible to be certain.
NEXT; So we're on a material hunt, how about something made of silk. That might be a challenge. And if the this thread gets stuck on that hunt, please someone else offer a different material as I will be away from computers for a couple days.

Intended or unintended pun?

Cotton in the raw.



So next material is stainless steel.

I would have to search L&H for an unused image of a raptor, but as to the device above, I'm pretty sure it's a blacksmith tool, one of venerable design. It probably has a particular name.

"hollow bits tongs" - thank you GOOGLE
