Today we acquired two vintage model 14's for refurb. Supposedly, they were once at the Texas State Fair (via Georgia)? One booth will be lightly refurbished and put back into service, while the other will be completely restored. The restored booth is for Brian of photobooth.net. This will be his first photobooth, owned! And true to Brian's form, he wants it to be as close to orginal as possible. While the booth has lost a few of its orginal pieces, I'm confident we can bring it back. After getting them off the truck, I started to pull off the paneling. To my suprise, the orginal material and finish is still underneath. It has some glue which will need to be removed, but otherwise decent! It is also missing some trim, and what would have been the orginal sign on the front of the cabinet, but I can work around this. The idea is to bring it back as close as possible to that true vintage model 14 form. I'll continue to post photos of the process... however, Brian wants to get his hands dirty, so, I'm holding back as much as possible. Right now, just going to strip it, and determine what needs to be done.

Just for good measure, here is a photo of a VERY NICE Model 14 we refurbished for the Neo-Futurist's. It was hard to let go of this gem, but it's in good hands!


Also, note that we have modeled our Digital-Retro booth (above) very closely to the Model-14. We currently manufacture the Digital-Retro for resale, and place them in various venues. Interested? Let us know!

On other fronts: we have a lot to post... a lot of news, and yes, still need to recap the 2009 IPC!!! We had a blast and the photos to prove it!!

FYI: We have officially left Google's Blooger, and have moved to a new service. So, stay tuned to the new and improved 312photobooth blog!
