From KETC, LIVING ST. LOUIS Producer Jim Kirchherr finds out the truth behind "Ghost signs," faded advertisements painted on brick walls of rehabbed loft spaces and vacant buildings around St. Louis. Theses signs offer a glimpse into a busier, simpler age when blacksmiths were prominent and specialty shops lined the streets of the Wellington Loop.
Outstanding little documentary. Thank you!

These signs are partly why I miss St. Louis so much....... There is so much history. So much that makes it a special place.

Great Video. Found it while thinking about the "Thirsty just Whistle" orange soda painted sign by my house at Varlemann and Neosho.
RIP - The Switzer Licorice sign.
