Title: Roadside find - Old Squirt advertisement
Post by: Chedki on April 28, 2013, 01:04:53 am
Riding my motorcycle today along the country roads, I stumbled upon this old Squirt advertisement on the side of an old merchandise store. I just had to pull over and take pictures.  :laugh:

That's cool, some of that stuff still exists and you can't take that one down.

I think its neat that they couldn't take the time to spell out General Merchandise but they could paint the Squirt Boy perfectly.

That's a nice one!  I came across a few in a small town called Mt Gilead in NC, I can't tell if they were repainted, either way pretty cool to see.

That was when stores didn't just sell flavor of the month , they were in it for the long run.
