Description
We found this old hand painted on the back wall of a store in a small Texas town.
Signs painted on the sides of humdrum brick buildings advertised such wares and services, in bold block letters. They are hieroglyphics of a bygone advertising era. The decades before the Depression were their heyday, but even after printed billboards became the advertising method of choice, signs were commonly painted on buildings into the 1960's.
