Bobby Sherman’s Main Street
Thursday, August 2nd, 2007
The former teen idol has recreated Disney’s Main Street USA at 1/5 Scale. Via BoingBoing, of course.
Incidentally, Main Street USA itself is 7/8th scale on the first floor, and a third story is created from two story structures through forced perspective. So Bobby Sherman has created a miniature of a miniature of the platonic ideal of small town USA. But don’t worry: if this much postmodernism makes you vomit, cast members will swoop in with sawdust before you can say “Baudrillard”.
