American Glory

 The world as seen from Just Above Sunset -

"Notes on how things seem from out here in Hollywood..."

American Glory - The Big Cadillac

Metal work - the shape of America in its glory days - a classic Cadillac on the lot at Frank Corrente Classic Cars on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood.  Actually, it's Frank Corrente's Cadillac Corner at 7614 Sunset - as featured in a Sports Illustrated video ("Watch Swimsuit Model Yesica Toscanini in her photo shoot at Frank Corrente's Cadillac Corner!"). This is a 1959 Cadillac Sedan Deville with the original "Woodrose" exterior, and inside, the original rose "Coronado" cloth with rose metallic leather trim. Wow. But the website says it's been sold, so you can't have it.

Note - Six new photos of the 1949 Buick from last week were added on Monday, September 11 - they rolled it out front and put the top down. That new page is here if you missed it.

If you use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me.

These were shot with a Nikon D70 - using lens (1) AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or (2) AF Nikkor 70-300mm telephoto, or after 5 June 2006, (3) AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor, 55-200 mm f/4-5.6G ED. They were modified for web posting using Adobe Photoshop 7.0

The original large-format raw files are available upon request.
