ED BROWNS AUTO SHOP

Brings back many memories of the good old days.
Ed Brown's Auto Shop, Apollo, PA - about 40 miles east of Pittsburgh.
Take note of the other artifacts along the walls of the shop such as The Elvis figure.
I highly recommend you to see the photos in their original format,

(The pics might take some time to load.)

The page loads so slowly because he didn't follow good web page design practice and resize the photos to make them appropriate for online viewing. They're nice photos, to be sure, but they're about 1 MB each. Couple this with the page having about 30 photos of this size all trying to load at once, and you have a recipe for slowing things down to a crawl. He could easily have resized them to about 100 to 200 kb each without any loss of quality, the page would have loaded about 10 times faster, and the whole experience would have been a lot better for his visitors.
