I hope we never stop having hand painted signs. The bottom one is the older shot. This is a little barber shop and now beauty salon on Cannon St. just off King. Absolutely charming.
Wonder if there is any work for sign painters. I bet I could learn to do it as long as other folks considered imperfections part of the charm like I do.
Not quite the same, but I remember how shopkeepers and even supermarkets would paint the offers of the day in whitewash on the store front windows.
ReplyDeleteI think handpainted signs are neat too! Although I'd never have the patience to do one myself.
ReplyDeleteEyebee - I'm not sure I've ever seen that. Pictures?
ReplyDeleteHalcyon - Many of them have to be painted in reverse - even harder!
