My favorite is the Onion and Egg with some buttah. Never did care for schmaltz. Happy Pesach!

Hi Frank,
Was going through the archives and I found this shot I took in Downtown Brooklyn. Any idea what the cat is all about? Feel free to post to ask your readers. I’d love to know…
Hope you are well and enjoyed the sun today!
Adrian.
Let’s see what our resident urban archaeologists come up with! Thanks Adrian.

Robert Baptista’s comments are elucidating!
In 1928, Malkind & Weinstein had nine good-sized projects under way in Brooklyn, so they were able to give their headquarters any touches they wanted, like the intricate half timbering and brick infill on the upper floors, two prowling cat figures at the roof line and a coat of arms at the second floor with the letters M and W flanking a T-square and triangle. – NY Times

Hi Frank
The photos are from a building in Globe Arizona an old mining town. The building was constructed in 1938 located at 401 North Broad Street in Globe Arizona. The majority of the buildings in the town are brick construction, however, at some point in time the property owners started to stucco over the top of the brick. Sometime in the past couple years the stucco was removed and the ads were underneath the stucco.
I saw your blog, you must have spent some time on that one. Keep up the good work, I enjoy your photos.
Thanks
David Mills
Thanks David!
