    Yup, I still check-in on RGP occasionally... I miss the CPM days.

    Yup! I still check-in on RGP occasionally but the noise level has made it difficult. How've you been? I miss the CPM days...

    Anyone from the CPM have a 1930s photo of downtown Chicago showing the skyscrapers of the day? I'm doing a pinball up and looking for a nice
    photo to work from that represents the early days of pinball...the photo
    needs to be copyright free.

    Thanks!

    I don't but there's a FB group "Forgotten Chicago" where folks post a lot of pics like this. If you don't find one there maybe you can post asking for one? I'll bet someone will dig one up and post it. Here's a link:
