  2. John the OFM of TMP fame has got to see this picture. He is a sedan chair afficionado.

  4. Nice sedan chair! It is a dignified way to travel and I wonder if it would qualify as carpooling in the modern world! The row house backdrop is really nice as well, those are Haller model railroad houses or some such, I suppose?

  6. Jiminho: houses in the backdrop is an assembled HO model railway kit (maybe Faller) I picked up cheap at a Toy&Train fair - I've stuck some larger doors over the HO ones so things look a bit more in scale
