Friday Fun!

There are three ghost signs in this picture, taken at 9th and Race.

Can you find them all?  No cheating!

Here's a hint though: Two of them say "Ford".

The answers are indicated in the next photo.  Just turn your screen over to see.

Actually, there may be more than three.

That discoloration in the center of the photo may be one painted over, and trying to leach through, and while not visible in the photo, above the Yum Yum Restaurant, there may have been something at one time.  In person, it kinda looks that way, anway.

All of these have been featured separately, previously.

Mercer Commons

This picture is from November.  I haven't been back to the Mercer Commons development area since, so, I'm not sure if the building still stands.  However, CityKin has an artist's rendering from a couple of years ago that seem to show it still standing, once some neighboring structures are replaced. 

(Don't look at the red circle, that's a different issue.  Instead, look along 14th Street on the map, and compare the drawing with this photo.)

Not the Usual Fare

Because it's built into the side of the structure, instead of painted. 

On 12th, as seen from Vine.

 

UPDATE 3/10/13:

R E P something something something.

 

 

I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends

Sent to us by one Ms. E. Correll.  Near Findlay Market, visible from Pleasant, she says.

Definitely worth a visit.  Because, obviously, there's mentions of televisions, and other household appliances, but, is that a Ford oval?  And who is the artist?  Something Lemon?

I love it.

Post BockFest Surprise

 

After this weekend's BockFest activities, the last thing on my mind was "more beer".  But, what do I see as I'm on Central Parkway this morning?

 

This brewery closed down in the late 1950's, according to Wikipedia.

Pharmacy

 

First noticed, and taken while waiting for a red light to turn green.   East McMillan.

There Are None So Blind...

That's not a completely fair title.  But, we tend to see what we want to see.  For instance:

Last week, when the light was just right, several previously unnoticed ghost signs materialized before me.  Like this one, on Vine.

Now, compare these pictures with some taken by fellow Ghostsignbuster Visualingual.

 

It's the same block.

She focused on the Barr's Loans, but missed the painted sign, whereas I completely blocked out the bright yellow sign for these. 
We see what we want, I guess.
