Ruth's Palace of Pleasure, Albion
Prototype in Chester, Vermont
January 2010
I named the Bar Mills Wicked Wanda kit after my wife who gave it to me for my 69th birthday. I replaced the Bar Mills self-stick unpainted shingles with another kind of shingles from the same company, which I attached with carpenter's glue. I painted some of the Preiser figures, doing my best to transform twentiteh-century women with short dresses into nineteenth-century floozes in their slips and bustiers. The cat house's weather vane with its appropriate cat came with a large set of etched brass weather vanes and fences purchased in England many years ago for pennies. [GPL].
