Norge Village

Just got a new scanner that'll scan film negatives. This is a picture I remembered taking around 1991 but a print was never made. So I was glad to come across this.
Santa Ana, CA.

Cool! I've seen a few of these around. They're getting more and more difficult to find!

Yes, I seem to recall seeing the striped ones too somewhere. Very circus-like...

Norge balls! You used to see them all over. I'm going to have to shoot the ones around here before they're gone! Most of the original ones say "NORGE Village", like yours does. They usually spun around too. I'm not sure if Norge actually owned these laundromats, or if you got one if you bought all Norge equipment for yours.
