[ Introduction ] [ This means something ] [ The Top Shelf Line ] [The Cases] [Main Street] [Tin Towne] [Hiway 61] [Monument Valley]

Main Street


This is downtown Top Shelf City.

East to West -- as you travel down Main Street, you see

  • The Webb Building (Webb Hardware sponsored my little league team),
  • The Drake Building (Home of Mallard & Labrador, CPAs),
  • The Historic Bank Building, with notable clock.
  • The Red Building (This is probably a Western Auto. all small towns need either a Western Auto or a Dairy Queen)
  • Old Soldier's Park,
  • and finally, Webster Hall (featuring meetings, receptions and catering).

The Models -- The five buildings originated as three and a half model kits.

  • K-Lineville Classics "Daily Whistle" Newspaper (K4221)
  • K-Lineville Classics First National Bank (K4222)
  • K-Lineville Classics Pharmacy (K4223) with "Add-a-Floor"
  • Part of a broken Plastiville Bank
  • A Pola Portal
  • And a soldier from a plastic "blue and gray battle set" atop an empty Rx bottle.
