This sign was taken on the side of the abandoned Hotel Sterling on Market & River Streets and is possibly a remnant of Sylvester Poli’s Theatre. See Michael Johnnson’s Apertome for some other great shots of Wilkes-Barre and NEPA.

    Thanks for the link, and the kind words. Interesting concept you’ve got here, with the fading ads.

    Was so happy to find your site in a search for more info about the sign we took a few weeks ago. Timing is everything. Serendipity makes it fun.
