"we have sold 500 million"
Part of the cool animated sign at the old McDonald’s stand in Downey, CA, a location so old that it actually predates Ray Kroc’s involvement with the company. Not a very good pic today, I shot it lazily from inside my car and it’s not even in focus. Oh well, one pic a day, good or bad, right?
I should get better pics of this later since I live right next to it. Although I did also shoot the picture that’s on wikipedia — but I’ve been wanting to improve on it with a nice “magic hour” shot. And it’s not like I haven’t had plenty of opportunities.
I also have this clip of this sign in motion which was originally shot on Super 16mm a few years back when it was in good working order:
Whenever I see the “500″ it always makes me feel like I’m inside of an episode of the Price is Right or something.
