PHOTOS: LOST SOULS OF MUSEE MECANIQUE


Amidst the tourist traps of San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf lies a place of magic. Musee Mechanique is the final resting place of over 300 vintage parlor, casino, and carnival games. I was most fascinated by a small collection of coin operated fortune machines. Featuring frighteningly life like sculptures, I found these pieces at once charming, creepy, wistful, sad, and ultimately haunting. If you get the chance, please visit this amazing place.
