When exactly did people or businesses stop painting their logos on the sides of buildings?
It's a tragedy really. They look so neat.
It was surely the best advertisement they had at that time...and it lasted for years and years and years.
Throw in a street lamp or two
and some hoodlums (from any era)
(Grace tells me she was demonstrating how to smoke a cigar in the background...hmmm...)
and you get a really cool reminder of how it used to be.
