This factory with the missing letters is at the edge of Oak Park. I made a mental note to get off the train at California on the way back, not the best of neighborhoods, because I thought this business, Chicago Blow Pipe, looked neat. I see to have an affinity for Fairfield. Here I am at the Blow Pipe Co. I grew up at the corner of Crystal and California, and if it wasn't for Humboldt Park, Fairfield would be right there. And when I was hit by the car in 1989, I was at the intersection of 55th and Fairfield.

Definitely an interesting name for a company.
The geometry in that top shot's pretty cool.
