All over Dowtown Los Angeles there are remnants of a time that people consider to be much simpler, this link to the past is called a ghost sign. Essentially, a ghost sign is a old hand-painted sign on the side of a building that is an advertisement for a service or product. Over the years these signs have withstood the test of time defying man and nature. Some building owners have left the signs up as a nostalgic view while others admit to just being lazy.
Btw, this is isn’t the first time I show one of LA’s ghost signs. Project 3six5: Day 265 actually had one on the side of the building which had been selfishly covered up by a street artist.
