This next post in my Brooklin in Illinois series features Brooklin's 1960 Lincoln Continental Town Car in black. This is the 2025 Brooklin Collectors Club model. The background photo shows a house designed by architect Harry Mahler in the Chicago suburb of River Forest. Mahler was a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, and its design is based on Wright's prairie style architecture. The Lincoln Continental model has a very high level of detail, which I tried to capture in my photos. The folks at Brooklin did an excellent job with this model.

What a great-looking real and 1/43 Brooklin replica of this giant Lincoln. River Forest is just a few miles away from here and is a perfect place for the big automobile to be driving around in.

A very nice one Ed. I love the architectural setting.

Although this body style is not my collecting focus it is a really nice looking model.
