Photo Hunt – Old Fashioned
The Stanford, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl.
I know, I know, I’m early with this post for Photo Hunt Saturday. But here’s the deal… I’m home today from work, not feeling all that well, and I have nothing better to do. Hence the post today.
About my post for this week’s theme, old fashioned… We went to San Jose last June and while there we ventured out to the Stanford in nearby Palo Alto. This place is fantastic. Admission is cheap, popcorn, snacks and soda are priced from the 50′s or so, and you get a double feature, complete with live organist popping up out of the floor during intermission. It’s old fashioned all the way around, and really incredible.If you want to join the hunt and the fun, check out the specifics at photo hunt.

Wow! I think it’s a great find! Finding cheap admission with snacks at the price in the 50s sounds like a really good deal
that’s lovely. i love classics as well. price from 50′s? not bad. double feature? even better.
thanks for the visit!
I hope you are feeling better. I wish we had something like this here… this would be so awesome… my DH and I would have a terrific time here, I just know it… great post!
Terrific shot… sounds like a lot of fun. Gotta wonder… if they can afford it why can’t the rest of the movie theaters cut us a break on the prices? Hope you feel better asap!
Looks fun! I love a fun night out! Wish we had this in Singapore.
hmmm…maybe someday i go there also
Nice pic

Awesome photo! Great entry for old fashioned.
Hmmmm… old movie house, a good movie and a bucket of popcorn… truly old fashioned. Good one.
Nice choice for the theme.
Thanks for visiting my “old fashioned”.
That sounds such fun! An all-round old fashioned experience. It’s amazing that they can keep the prices down too!
WOW – this sounds like a really great place! I want to go there!
Happy Weekend.
Now that’s funny, since I grew up there, I would virtually never notice something like that… Now I do, beautiful find!!!
What a great place and you got a wonderful photograph of it. Hope you are feeling better soon.
What an awesome place! My mom (who my photo hunt is dedicated to) would absolutely love this theatre, but we live in PA.
That seems really old-fashioned nowadays! I like the shot.
Yeah this is very old indeed. great shot you have here. Happy weekend!
You know it’s funny, I was just thinking, “they misspelled Katherine’s name!” But then I Googled it and I’M the one wrong! LOL I never realized she spelled her name like that.
I would LOVE going to that sort of movie theater!! That sounds like so much fun, especially the organist and those prices! lol
Oh! that is a fabulous photo for the theme!
Nice entry and nice shot too. Hope you’ll feel better soonest.
What a fantastic place, a bit before my time but I’m sure it’s a great experience
Sounds like a lovely old place. Hope you feel better soon. Have a lovely weekend.
this reminds me of my child hood and the theater on broad street Rome Ga. I am posting late today since I just got of the Carnival Freedom and their first annual Bloggers Cruise, 700 bloggers on board, it was fun, next one from New Orleans in February 09.
Great shot. Bringing up baby is a wonderful film. Happy weekend
Great choice. I love the photo….and the place sounds wonderful.
