An out-of-body experience
As the Sears store got closer to being permanently closed, the store fixtures began to be moved over to the sides of the building, where they were available for sale. I don’t know what the resale market is for used mannequins, but the photographic opportunities were obvious.

Right spooky. When young I had to wear boys clothes listed as “ Husky “. I am jealous of those physiques.
Another interesting find MGH.

Yeah, but those physiques are PLASTIC. You don’t want to be plastic! I hope.

I know!
One of my strongest photographic principles is that I won’t rearrange anything I encounter in order to make it more “photogenic.” However, I sort of regret that I didn’t take the time to rearrange the mannequins into various scenes. Another missed opportunity….
