Marjorie and I have been providing props and sets for movies now for nearly 30 years.<\/div>\n
We have a lot of things from commercial playgrounds to derelict farm machines and<\/div>\n
everything in between.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Here are some pictures of the things we assembled to help make the movie set<\/div>\n
look like real life in 1931<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Movie making is a secretive business.  The last thing a movie maker wants is visitors<\/div>\n
or early release of set construction.  Tough for  Art Directors to ever get much recognition,. <\/div>\n
Set designers are very creative people but often they have to act fast.<\/div>\n
   A set is built one day, filmed the next day and demolished<\/div>\n
the following day. Often but not always.  Some sets last a month tucked away in some<\/div>\n
semi hidden location.  Some sets last for years<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Only rarely do Marjorie and I ever see what is done with our things.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
So use your imagination<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
The Key?   The year 1931.  <\/div>\n
