I Saw the Sign....

I enjoy walking around looking at signs old and new. I am particularly interested in old signs. Sometimes it is a shame to see them get torn down. I have observed many in my neighborhood and now they are gone. I try to capture them before they disappear and become a fancy cafes. There are a couple that I photographed last year and would like to find in the archives and share. The following photograph is an example of a case where an Army/Navy Store closed, took down their awning, and revealed the remnants of an old Nash's sign. I bet the sign was originally illuminated. Neon maybe? Who knows? I am glad I noticed it before it got covered again.
