The business is long gone, but the sign painted on this building in Midtown Manhattan remains. I recall seeing many such painted signs in NYC as a boy growing up there in the 1960's. Best seen enlarged.

I like making art with a camera. I live in Roswell, Georgia, USA.

I really like the composition of the corner shot with impressive contrasts of textures and shades. Well done and a fav.

As Alison said, I call these relics "ghost signs". This one makes me wonder if the windows were added after the signs were painted.

A real social and economic history shot. I think these sorts of signs should be preserved.
