http://sfist.com/2011/07/15/1920s_boss_of_the_road_sign_reveale.php  Photo: David Gallagher During demolition to expand the Bayview library on Third Street, a 1920s sign for Boss of the Road work clothes was exposed. "The sign dates from before 1921, based on San Francisco Assessor's records for the demolished building," reports photographer David Gallagher. "Here's a 1928 shot of the street from the Jesse Brown Cook Collection at UC Berkeley's Bancroft Library." Nifty. I'm kind of a nut on old advertising and billboard art that gets uncovered after many years. Sure wish I could drop by and get some Boss of the Road union-made work clothes. |
