Then and Now, from Signs to Websites.
Started by Ogilvie Stanford in 1879 with the help of Rockwell Gager. Ithaca Sign Works produced cloth, tin and wooden signs; novelties like yard sticks, match safes, knife sharpeners, fly swatters, and spare tire covers. They printed or painted such items as advertisements for other companies all over the country. – Ithaca Sign Works

Hi Frank!
Saw the attached wall sign while speeding dangerously through a small and winding street near Axat, in the south of France, pulled the emergency brake, jumped out, dodged a few cars and goats, took the shot and continued on my journey.
Regards from your roving reporter, back from monkey business in France and Spain,

Here is a photo I took of an old ad that was uncovered after a row of stores was torn down after a fire destroyed them. The ad is located on the side of a building on Westchester Ave and Ferris Place in the Bronx. These ad is from probably at least 80 years ago. F.M Weiss was located at 120 Westchester Sq – CITY NOISE
