    No full text
    Details are extremely important to make the recreations really work. From the tractor, which arrived in several boxes, to the tools on the bench every item in the photographs was researched. The tractor was rebuilt nearby and the automobiles were purchased and brought in to match the vehicles in the original image. The contents of the workbench were carefully gathered from a variety of sources. The stove was chosen based on the one showing in the photograph of the mechanics.Destination Indiana - You Are There 1924: Tool Guys and Tin Lizzies Journe

    Wallpaper Being Recreated

    No full text
    Getting all the details right is important. The wallpaper does not show up in sharp detail in the original photograph, so our graphic artist used her best judgment to reproduce the pattern. After zooming in to the image, she used a stylus (digital pen) and tablet to trace the pattern by hand. The new pattern was then formatted to fit the walls of the violin shop and a large printer made the wallpaper. It could then be applied to the walls as if it was traditional wallpaper.Destination Indiana YAT 1914 The Violin Maker Upstair

    You Are There 1924: Tool Guys and Tin Lizzies - Woman Getting Driving Instruction

    No full text
    Attention to detail extends to the costuming of the interpreters. IHS staff visits professional costumers and orders the clothing so the styles and fabrics are just right. From mechanics diagnosing a problem to a woman getting driving instruction, scenes such as these would have been common in the garage used by George Greenlee for his Ford dealership. Guests could see under the hood and learn the intricacies of driving a Model T while also learning about everyday life in Hartford City.Destination Indiana - You Are There 1924: Tool Guys and Tin Lizzies Journe
