Master Index for the “E. L. Moore’s Legacy in the 21st Century” series

The posts in this series are starting to pile up and I thought some sort of master index was needed.

1. The E. L. Moore in the 21st Century series

I consider this series of posts the 'mainline' story about E. L. Moore's work. Each post in this series has the E. L. Moore's 21th century legacy tag attached.

E. L. Moore's Legacy in the 21st century: Balsa, cost, a handcar shed and organic veggies

E. L. Moore's Legacy in the 21st century: Twenty-five years at the movies

E. L. Moore's Legacy in the 21st century: The Railroad Modeler Years

E. L. Moore's Legacy in the 21st century: Signature Styles, Signature Structures, and Selective Staging

E. L. Moore's Legacy in the 21st century: Sticks and glue may build Cousin Cal's Cabbage Plant but sauerkraut juice will never hurt me

E. L. Moore's Legacy in the 21st century: Modernizing Caleb's Cabbage Co.

8. General E. L. Moore posts

There have also been some posts where E. L. Moore’s work was cited as an influence, or I pointed out that some prototype might make for an interesting E. L. Moore style building, or I was just wildly speculating on something that seemed Moorian :-)

9. E. L. Moore project builds

As well as the series posts, over the years I’ve built-up a number of E. L. Moore’s projects. Many have made use of more modern materials than were originally specified in the articles, so in a way they form some sort of appendix to the series. Here’s a list of them.



Bunn's Feed & Seed Plant

Jones Chemical Co.

Uncle Charley's Bookery

  1. I've really been enjoying your posts on Moore. I love in-depth investigations into singular and peculiar subjects like this. Reminds me of:

    http://longforgottenhauntedmansion.blogspot.com/

    I don't know if you're aware, but Clever Models has released a papercraft version of Moore's Carolina Foundry.

    http://clevermodels.squarespace.com/models-gallery/o-s-ho-n-scale/20586729

    The download is $14.95... which in 1972 dollars would have been around $2.50. That's Moorian!

  2. Thanks Dan! I'm glad you're enjoying them. I've had quite a good time writing them and taking this trip down memory lane. I'll check out the link. I didn't know about the Clever Models version of the Carolina Foundry - I'll need to check that out too. It's been a good weekend for Moore tips. Yesterday I found, quite by accident an unopened ELMoore plastic kit version of one of his old time store projects by AHM.

  3. Wow, I can remember as a young child sitting for hours at a time and admiring my grandfathers hand crafted houses and buildings. And I vaguely recall seeing some of his pictures and articles of model railroads. And then there was the large model landscape and railroad in our basement that I often dreamed about getting back together. So I always knew he was a model builder, but until seeing this blog I had no idea the impact he had on model railroad building. Thank you Mr. Lowe for allowing me to learn more about my grandfather, as he passed when I was very young.

    V/R,

    1. Hi Jimmy,
      Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you liked the articles. If there is any more you could tell me about your grand-father I'd very much like to hear about it. He was a major figure in mid-20th century model railroading and his impact is still felt today.
      Cheers, Jim.

  5. Mr. Lowe,

    My mother has received your letter and she will be in touch. We will be hunting down some of his papers and we have a collection of models you may like to see as well.

  6. Mr. Lowe, I've discovered your amazing blog posts about E.L. Moore after building the Pola Brewery kit and looking for more information on its origins. I've found myself very interested in this early history of some of the kits we grew up with. Is it OK if I mention your blog on the YouTube video I'll post of building the kit?
