Here you are George



The DQ and McD are made by Hawthrone. The McD is just like the Dept 56 but no snow on it and about 1/2 the price.

BTW - my one brother-in-law is a cop. Once there was some police activity at the local mall and I ask him what was up and he said someone brought some doughnuts. [^]

Tom,

What is that little hamburger joint off to the extreme right in the bottom photo? It has the hot rod with the flames parked in front of it. Buildings like this that are stand alone structures make good mini-scenes as you no doubt know. Nice touch with all the police cars parked out front of the donut shop. I wonder what your policeman freinds would think of that? If I find one of these I will probably do sometime similar. Thanks for all the replies.

George

The Krispy Kreme is retired as John has stated. This also means that dealers can sell it at 30% off list price. I have one and it is great with O gauge

The Krispy Kreme shop is a retired item but not hard to find. Most of the Dept. 56 buildings work well with either S or O gauge.

Does anybody know if they still make this item? Is it close to correct for O gauge? Where would I get one?

Thanks,

George
