Roadtrip adventures, continued …
This pair of attached buildings in Shiner, Texas, just earned my top spot for favorite ghost sign, so far. The building on the left, covered in nailed-on sheets of painted tin, says, among other things, “Feed Store,” “Purina Chows,” and “BABY CHICKS.” The building on the right was a “hatchery,” per its sign. Seriously awesome, no?
Roadtrip adventures, continued:
A faint “J PLACE” ghost sign – painted on the side of the dilapidated wood building – remains behind the “CHUDEJ PLACE COLD DRINKS” and “PEPSI-COLA” metal signs. Very cool.
(Location: On Highway 90, somewhere between Schulenburg and Flatonia, Texas.)

Whoever designed the wood ornamentation on this door had to do so around the existing old metal hardware. I *love* this.
