Mystery History

Where are we? And what's happening?

The first person to guess correctly will win lunch with me -- I'll buy yours and you'll buy mine.

Remember, leave your brief guess as a comment on this blog post but don't try to give the entire back story (that's my job).

I'll have the full scoop on Thursday.

  2. A theater prop for the Pasadena Playhouse - but then again these guys in their shirts and ties don't exactly scream bohemia eccentricity. The older gents eyebrows are more Cal Tech then Bohtech.

  3. Definitely plywood capsule mock-up. But the real story is Ricky Nelson penning of a rough draft of the song "Rocket Man" that Elton John would ultimately pilfer.
