Beam Me Up, Bellhop


Hamilton Hotel
Chicago, IL
1950's?

Judging from these two lighted sections in the back, it seems that this hotel was so far ahead of its time that it came equipped with Star Trek-style transporters, presumably to send you up to your room without bothering with these pesky old-fashioned elevators. However, the transporters must not be very efficient, judging from all these couches (here we go again with reds and goldens...) if you have to wait to be transported. (Wait, I think I see the problem -- they don't have these disc thingies on the floor like you see on Star Trek shows. I guess they were still working out these things back then.)
