This abandoned restaurant is on the west side of Hawthorne Road, between Lincoln Highway and Walnut Street, in the small town of Inwood, Indiana.

The old whitewashed brick building has an RC Cola (Royal Crown Cola) sign with the restaurant's name, V & R Country Restaurant, under it. Another sign near the road says the place is called the RC Lunch Room. The RC Cola signs are unique; I have never seen another restaurant with them. Small locally-owned restaurants often have signs provided to them by soda manufacturers, with Pepsi and Coca-Cola being the most common.

Inwood isn't much of a town, just a couple of small streets and a railroad track just south of US-30 in rural Marshall County.

Purchase Prints
by Christopher Crawford

All of my prints are available framed or unframed. I use black metal Neilsen & Bainbridge frames with white cotton unbuffered museum board for the mat and backing board for maximum archival protection. Photographs are printed on an Epson pigment printer using Epson's archival ultrachrome inset for long life.

Credit card payment is handled through Paypal. You do not have to have a Paypal account. When you checkout, you will be taken to Paypal's site. If you have a Paypal account, sign in and approve the payment.

If you do not have a Paypal account, and do not want to sign up for one, there is a link on the Paypal page that says "Don't have a Paypal Account?" Click it to pay without signing up. It will accept your credit card like a normal credit card payment.

Unframed prints usually ship within 7 days. This allows time for me to make your print and to allow it to cure for several days before I package it to ship. Framed prints usually take about two weeks, because my framer usually requires about a week to complete his work.

Please Note: In late 2024, I was forced to dramatically increase the prices for framed prints. This reflects the actual cost of framing them. I make no profit from the additional charge for framing; I charge you what the framer charges me, and every framer that I know has had to ramp up prices due to inflation in recent years. I earn my living selling my photographs, and offer the framing at cost because many people prefer to buy a print that is framed and ready to display.

Thank you for supporting my work.
