  54. <p>Today in 1964, Rip Payne documented Bradley Peyton Motors, a locally owned Pontiac-Cadillac dealership.  Peyton Motors was located on West Main Street, on the lot where the Red Roof Inn now sits.  The dealership opened in 1947, and existed for nearly twenty years until in 1967 the hotel (at this time, a Howard Johnson,) replaced it.  Prior to being the car dealership, the land had been host to a number of businesses, including a gas station, dry cleaners, and miniature golf course.  For more fun facts about the development of the Corner blocks, check out this great <a href="http://archives.uvamagazine.org/atf/cf/%7B8A7B03C1-B900-49F1-B435-B2B4777BFF0E%7D/corner.pdf">spread</a> by Coy Barefoot in the <a href="http://uvamagazine.org/">University of Virginia Magazine</a> archives.</p>

  137. <p>On this day in 1970, Rip Payne photographed the Weakly wedding.  The happy pair was smart and opted for an indoor wedding, to which Rip agreed.  As I remarked <a title="Today in Rip Payne" href="https://charlottesvillealbemarlehistory.wordpress.com/2012/07/10/today-in-rip-payne-40/">yesterday</a>, it seems Rip was not a fan of the July heat, and 1970 is no exception to this.  We only have two other documented cases of him venturing out—one of which was another wedding, and the other being a photo shoot with the &#8220;Tupperware Girls&#8221; (just you wait!).  At least Rip has his priorities straight.</p>
  138. <p>Here&#8217;s a couple quick highlights on these:</p>
  139. <ol>
  140. <li>Bursts of color: Yellow and green? You have my heart dear Weakly.  Having just returned from my own honeymoon in Jamaica, I&#8217;ve been going through withdrawal of many things: relaxation time, beach, and waves, among other things.  I was slightly prepared for these things, though.  Being a beach bum at heart, I know that adjusting back to life in the mountains can be hard after any time near surf and sand. The thing that has shocked me the most was the complete difference in COLOR between Jamaica and Virginia.  I&#8217;m talking bright blue ocean and pure white sand, brilliant flora in golden yellows, burstingly bright corals and reds, and the most purely green foliage.  And then we come back to a scorched earth and a few variations on red-brown in the Jeffersonian architecture of Charlottesville.  Blech!  So, Weakly and Payne, thank you for bringing color back to me, if only in pictures!</li>
  141. <li>Oftentimes in these, the brides look, well, <a title="Today in Rip Payne" href="https://charlottesvillealbemarlehistory.wordpress.com/2012/05/30/today-in-rip-payne-22/">a little terrified</a> (at least pre-ceremony).  Understandable.  Our Weakly bride, though, looks positively radiant.</li>
  142. </ol>

  176. <p>Today&#8217;s Rip Payne comes from an unknown date in July 1967, and depicts Old Fashion Day at what was a relatively new Barracks Road Shopping Center.</p>
  177. <p><em>Bunny trail time</em>: Something tells me our friend Rip wasn&#8217;t a fan of the July heat.  To date, the distribution of pictures per month falls heavily on spring (March to May) and fall (September to November).  Admittedly, the cool breezes and beautiful colors of those seasons seem far more attractive than the scorched earth and overheated public of summer—especially to someone whose life work is to capture beauty.  Nonetheless, I&#8217;m happy to report that summer is doing far better than winter.  In terms of number of Rip Payne photographs.  Because, as you know, that&#8217;s what really matters.</p>
  178. <p>Anyways, one of the (few) reasons Rip ventured out in the heat in July 1967 (so far I only have one other photo series from this month and year) was to shoot a group of individuals who dressed up in old-fashioned garb and shopped.  Well, rather, they dressed up so that others would shop.  That&#8217;s right—for at least two years in a row, a group of Barracks Road employees put on the longest dresses and warmest wool suits they find and paraded around in the dreaded heat, all in the name of sales.  Needless to say, this event didn&#8217;t last through to the present.  Hmm, I wonder why?</p>
  179. <p>P.S. Can you guess which character is my favorite?</p>

  218. <p>Today in 1955, Rip Payne spent his day as he so often did, photographing a wedding.  To be precise, this was the Duval wedding, which took place at the University Chapel.</p>
  219. <p>Having spent more time in another local Gothic-style church, I find myself constantly wanting to proclaim that Rip was wrong in his identifications of the Chapel vs. Christ Episcopal Church (these are probably the two most popular wedding venues during this time, at least judging from these RP photos), and (almost!) always being wrong.  Consider the following images of the interiors of these two churches:</p>
  220. <div style="width: 810px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img title="University Chapel" src="https://i0.wp.com/people.virginia.edu/~smb3u/PhotoBlogs/Virginia/UVa080823-16Favs-15.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="530" /><p class="wp-caption-text">University Chapel</p></div>
  221. <div style="width: 810px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img title="Christ Episcopal Church" src="https://i0.wp.com/activerain.com/image_store/uploads/2/8/8/8/9/ar121018932998882.JPG" alt="" width="800" height="574" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Christ Episcopal Church</p></div>
  222. <p>Looking at Rip&#8217;s black and white negatives, I admit, at first glance I often mistake one for the other.  Luckily, the stained glass behind the altars differs greatly and provides a good identifier.</p>
  223. <p>Anyhow, Rip Payne spent his day in <em>University Chapel </em> (note the stained glass) on this day in 1955, celebrating yet another happy Charlottesville nuptial:</p>

  303. <p>On this day in 1970, Rip Payne spent the day at Christ Episcopal Church, photographing the Rumble wedding (as he named it).  As I&#8217;m going to be married there in just two and half weeks myself, you know I couldn&#8217;t resist!</p>
  304. <p>I&#8217;ll let you enjoy after a few quick observations:</p>
  305. <ol>
  306. <li><a href="http://www.luckymag.com/blogs/luckyrightnow/2011/09/milan-fashion-week-seafoam-green#slide=1">Seafoam green is back</a>.  That only took like 42 years&#8230; sheesh.</li>
  307. <li>I am not sure I&#8217;ll ever get used to bridesmaids wearing veils.</li>
  308. <li>Is this not one of the most unhappy-looking <a href="https://charlottesvillealbemarlehistory.wordpress.com/tag/wedding/">brides</a> you have ever seen?  I don&#8217;t want to judge, because I myself have a face that never cooperates in pictures.  But, here I am, judging nonetheless.  Time to go practice in the mirror, me!</li>
  309. <li>Awesome choice of costume change, and even better car decorating.</li>
  310. </ol>
  311. <p>Enjoy!</p>

  379. <p>On the day before today in 1968, Rip Payne photographed the lines outside the Paramount Theater in anticipation of <em>The Fox</em>.  As you may recall, we&#8217;ve witnessed Rip documenting similar situations <a href="https://charlottesvillealbemarlehistory.wordpress.com/tag/paramount/">before</a>.  I particularly fancy these kinds of images because they stand out from Rip&#8217;s typical portraiture work.  They are a portrait of collective society—not just Charlottesville— but of America in the mid-twentieth century.</p>
  380. <p><img class="alignleft" title="The Fox" src="https://i0.wp.com/www.sci-fi-o-rama.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/the_fox.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="338" /></p>
  381. <p><em>The Fox</em>, on the other hand, may not be the most obvious representation of typical mid-century American culture (<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062990/">check it out for yourself</a>).</p>
  382. <p>In light of all the brouhaha over <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/obama-supports-gay-marriage-discusses-north-carolina-ban-16317627">Obama&#8217;s</a> (<a href="http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/obama-visits-biden-cold-open/1401439">and Biden&#8217;s</a>) recent declarations on the rights of gay and lesbian Americans, I do find it somewhat amusing that I would come across the one of only about a hundred films with a similar theme from the time period (out of what IMDB estimates being about 4,000 from then till the present).  I have no desire to start a political discussion on the matter, but being a historian, I will point you to <a href="http://hnn.us/jim_loewen/articles/146241.html">a fine treatment</a> of some of the surrounding controversy by Jim Loewen (best-selling author of the <em>Lies My Teacher Told Me</em> series).</p>
  383. <p>Now for the light-hearted stuff:</p>

  427. <p>Ready for some Friday frivolity?</p>
  428. <p>On this day in 1965, Rip Payne spent the day at Monticello, capturing a handful of memories of a telephones galore. First, there are a couple of telephone booths set up on the hillside (to me, it resembles the turn of the road going around the house).  Then, we have a group of gentlemen excitedly answering phones in a tent.  One guy really likes his shades—I mean, who wouldn&#8217;t?  Next, Rip documents a fantastic 1960s fire-hazard: a slew of cords thrown about and held up in an old tree. And finally, we close with a misplaced, fantastically cheesy shot of two of the telephoners snapping pictures of one another.</p>
  429. <p>I have no idea.  But you&#8217;ve got to love those eyesores of telephone booths. Oh yes, technology over preservation won out (but only temporarily).</p>
  430. <p>In some exciting news regarding Monticello and preservation today, you should consider attending Preservation Piedmont&#8217;s <a href="http://www.preservation-piedmont.org/future-events/"><em>Monticello to Main Street </em></a>tour this weekend.  The tour traces Monticello&#8217;s African American community as they descended from the mountain and down into the town in the 19th and 20th centuries. Developed in conjunction with the <a href="http://www.monticello.org/">Thomas Jefferson Foundation</a> and the <a href="http://www.jeffschoolheritagecenter.org/">Jefferson School African American Heritage Center</a>, it is going to be <em>fantastic</em>. And of course, the 2pm start time still allows you a nice Court Square <a href="http://albemarlehistory.org/index.php/Historical_Society/events/court_square_walking_tours/">stroll with us</a> in the morning!</p>
  431. <p>Happy Friday!</p>
