Hey! It worked! That is exactly the image that kept creeping into my head
while I was building it!
That, and a post office design in a diorama at the Portland (Maine) airport,
where they have a number of models on display. The one I'm thinking of had a
burned out post office with the greystone arches on the first floor. Next to
the building was a damaged StugIII Tank Destroyer, and painted on its chassis
was some graffiti: "No Forwarding Address".
