I believe that when Motts gets too dirty doing a shoot he takes a bath, if the facilities are available. He is a very clean person.

kinda creepy that its a tub and there is water on the side of it. Like someone just stepped out of it

bet you anything if you cleaned this up and plugged it in, it would still work. Sad when things like this get left behind

What an amazing building! You're right Max. I think H.P. Lovecraft would have been inspired by this place. I'm really surprised I've never seen it in a horror movie. It would have been perfect! Great site, by the way! :-)

I believe this is the old library.

Actually, this looks like the part of the building in which we were allowed to smoke! It was a basement lounge with a tv ("That Was the Week That Was"). Mine was one of the last classes to be able to live in Halcyon - firetrap!

An errand upstate took me through Millbrook last Friday and I took a sad and nostalgic stroll all around the old Bennett campus. I was a student there in '65 and '66. A rig is drilling a well in the front lawn; the operator told me the place will be demolished to make way for condos. I stood in the courtyard and could see into my old classrooms, I peeked into a plywooded doorway and saw the columns in the old design studio, I summoned images and memories of the dining room where we sang to classmates who came back from spring weekends with engagement rings. I conjured up names and faces of girls (we weren't women then) I haven't thought about for years. I'm amused to read comments about the place being haunted; if so, it's just by a bunch of post adolescent females anguishing over most of the same things the spook-hunters are going through. Goodbye, girls; goodbye Bennett.

We sell dogtags and still work with this kind of machine. We bought it 3 years ago for approx. €1500,- The machine is built in 1965 and in a perfect condition.
I'm looking for a technical manual. Can someone help me with this?
