I continue to find intriguing stories as I read my way through the 1970's issues of Railroad Model Craftsman.
In the Nov '75 issue there's an article called The Penn Creek Valley by Sam Powell about his S-scale (1/64) layout. He notes that it was hard to find S-scale buildings, but stacking HO scale kits can fool the eye into thinking the resulting building is S scale if some judicious replacement of S-scale window and door castings is done.
He doesn't specifically mention making use of AHM's Ramsey Journal Building - the caption merely says: "...obvious HO parentage..." - but if you look closely at the building in the red box you can see it's 2 Ramseys stacked one on top of the other, with some window and door openings on the facade enlarged to accept S-scale castings.
I'm now on the lookout to see if anywhere in all those '70s issues if anyone used a Ramsey in an N-scale kitbash :-)
