I took this photo from my car on my way home from work. I had been driving by this building almost every day and thought I should take a picture of it. I love these old ads on historic structures and they are quickly disappearing from the urban landscape, unfortunately.
Now that I look at these two, I would like to take a third, focusing in on just the ad.

Bonjour Mme,
You have a very interesting, colourful and entertaining blog. Love that giant shuttlecock and the nostalia piece particularly. There are a lot of old walls in this part of France containg faded advertising – byegone days. I have always thought to do a series of photos and this lovely shot of yours makes me want to do it more than ever.
Thank you
Regards
Dan
Why, Thank You Dan! I am afraid these old wall advertisments will soon disappear making way for new buildings. And how about a Coca Cola for 5 cents! 🙂

I love the “Relieves Fatigue”
Oh yes, like medicine, lol. 😉
I too love the part of the sign which reads “relieves fatigue.” Considering it was selling for 5 cents I bet that was old formula coke. Great picture!
Thanks! 🙂
