Life Like McDonald's building I bought for twenty dollars. I got it at Willis Hobbies near Mineola New York on Sunday.










I fixed it up after busy day at work yesterday.

As you probably know, those go for some dinero. Think it was something to do with it being
pulled off the market for copyright violation, as well as being a very interesting piece.

I added more stickers to cover the trimmings separations.

Nice one, Ben. Are those some kind of ad hoc Christmas decorations
glued on there? That would hurt the value.

I guess you can call them that. I got them at a discount store in Brooklyn New York last week.

I am not interested in the value of the building. Just to enhance it.

The trimmings have separations and the previous owner used a very strong adhesive.

To try to take it off would break the trimmings. So I came up with a solution.

I like it but I realize some people may not care for the changes to the building.

To each their own.
