    Fort Knox

    A battered guardhouse stands in the middle of the road after being blown off its foundation by a customized motor coach. The checkpoint, part of the “Stripes” set, stood on the “Czechoslovakian” border before its celluloid demise. Columbia Pictures movie makers decided that a site on old Wilson Road, under the Illinois Central Gulf railroad trestle, would be perfect for the role of the communist country.
