Shadows of Vertigo

A few Vertigo locations as they were in 1958 and as they are as of 11/11/06.

The portrait of Carlotta.

The place where the portrait once hung for a few days back in 1958.

Scotty Fergusons view of gallery

The same gallery 2006

Scotty Ferguson tails his target into the Museum
The museum as it is 11/11/06

Madeline thanking Scotty Ferguson at the door of Scottie's apartment.


The same location 900 Lombard street where tourists misdirect their cameras to the crookedest street in the world just feet away from this most important location.




Madeline leaving her apartment building in her green Jaguar.


Like the other Scotty Ferguson I longed to see that same Jaguar in the drive and perhaps for Madeline to appear.


Fort point 1958
Fort point 2006. The area in which Kim Novak stood has been blocked off by construction.

did you take these?

also: The damn knobs would NOT come off. The only one that would budge was the oven knob, and it was cracked. Sorry.
