The Forgotten Shop.

This is Klaus Littmann’s Das grosse Stilleben (The Big Still Life) – Le Petit Grand-Magasin, a museum exhibit made to look like a forgotten department store. Klaus got his idea when:

At the start of 2003, a friend told Klaus Littmann about the closed department store in the village of Mugron in south-western France. An initial visit confirmed the incredible: a department store whose doors had last admitted patrons nearly 30 years ago has been left in its original condition and regularly maintained and cleaned by its owners.

    The sad thing is that, y'know, even after 30 years the Twinkies would still probably be fresh.

    One more sad thing: this looks exactly the same as any of the currently running neighborhood stores here in Cabo San Lucas, but cleaner!
