Pretty amazing 1950's and '60's Car Photography

Post by SheilaShoe »

I stumbled across these incredible photos by Michael Paul Smith today so I thought I'd share :D

Using scale‐model cars mostly from the 1950s and ’60s, a few handmade miniature sets and his camera skills, Michael Paul Smith has created a town, 'Elgin Park', that exists only in photographs.

Every one of the cars in these photos is a die‐cast model.

Plenty more here and here, definitely worth a look :)

I'd rather drive something made of metal, not plastic!
