If you’ve ever wanted to step into your favorite movie, Vacation on Location is the perfect guidebook for you. Author Joey Green gives readers detailed scene-by-scene addresses and maps to visit sites in the Midwest where the most popular films of all time were shot. You will also learn where to see famous props, like the original Bluesmobile, two miniature flying monkeys from The Wizard of Oz, and Ralphie’s Red Ryder Carbine Action Two-Hundred Shot Range Model Air Rifle—safely behind glass in a museum (so you don’t shoot your eye out). With this book as your guide, you can turn these excursions into full-scale vacations or quirky side trips to recreate a scene, starring you.
