On the Road Again


These come to us from Ms. A Peterson-Rinehart, captured in Omaha, Nebraska.


We're closing up shop for a week, and heading on vacation, and hope to find some ghost signs in the great state of Michigan.  Back a week from Monday.
In the meantime, feel free to search our archives, (to the right), and get your fix.

Life on the Street


The back entrance to the current Hamilton County Board of Elections.
Also, homicide cops work out of here too.

A More Modern Touch


Along Warsaw Avenue, across the street from the Public Library.
Most of the ghost signs we see were created in the late 19th, or early 20th Centuries.  This is rather obviously late 20th.

Forgetful


Three years ago, we ran in the Redlegs 5K, and noticed this sign, along Mehring Way.  We made a note of it, and promptly forgot about it, because the front of the building was much more noticeable.
Until this year, when running in the Redslegs 5K, when we saw it again.

Cool Sweet Smoke


There has to be a good explanation for why this beauty has escaped our attention before now.


It's on McMicken, near Colerain, and very close to the Mockbee.


All we can offer is that we saw it years ago, but the lighting was bad, and we filed it away for a future shoot, and forgot about it.

High Five


Warsaw Avenue, a couple blocks east of yesterday's entry.
I see a giant 5, which makes us think of this.
