Historical Retail of Champaign

 

Can you tell what this one says?

Even with the zoom-in, it's difficult.

Cash

or

Credit

Then there's the Greenman's,

with the old sign sitting atop

something much newer.

Can you tell what this is?

Ms. J. Fiesta had to tell us.

Zooming in to the bottom

for a hint.

How about another angle?

A&P Grocery

(The sign is at 118 E. University.

We don't know where the store was.)

More from the Windy City

 

Between computer problems, platform problems, and our morning schedule,

it has become difficult to maintain regular updates.

But, we're back.

Sometimes there are so many signs, one gets tired,

and instead of going around the block for a better picture,

one just says "eh. Good enough."

We apologize for shorting this great sign.

These signs are not technically ghosts,

as the businesses still operate.

See Will in Evanston

On Montgomery Road, in the Cincinnati neighborhod of Evanston, just across the street from the cemetery. 

You can also see Will in Over-the-Rhine.

The corner of Gilbert & McMillan is in Walnut Hills. And from that corner, you can see several other ghost signs, including this, this, and this.

Need Money?

See Will!

On McMicken, east of Vine.
