On the Other Side

 

I found this old photo in my files and thought I had already posted this photo years ago but upon investigation I found that I posted a photo of the other side back in 2012.

This two-sided sign/mural used to stand in front of an old 1940's or 50's era motel.  At the time I posted the first photo, the place had been turned into apartments.  Now, sadly this sign in gone.  Well the large brick frame is still there but the mural has been painted over all one rather sad-looking color.  What a shame.  The murals have a lot of character and certainly added a lot to the aesthetics of the place.


Taking part in Monday Murals.

  9. I like the very Mexican aspect of this mural. It's absolutely wonderful that you were able to photograph it back then. Now it lives in posterity and your photo!
