Clifton Ghost Sign

Hidden on the walls of old buildings scattered across Louisville, Kentucky, are fading remnants of the city’s past called “ghost signs,” which were typically hand-painted advertisements of bygone businesses dating back to the late 1800s. These signs once lined commercial corridors in cities and towns around the world advertising every manner of business from pharmacies to grocery stores and saloons to manufacturing plants. These were painted by hand by skilled artisans applying heavy lead-based paint on porous brick, which has allowed these signs to survive decades of being exposed to the elements. The H.G. Young Druggist pharmacy operated at this location as far back as 1900. Copyright © 2023 John Hultgren, Louisville, Kentucky, USA. All Rights Reserved. Clifton Neighborhood, Louisville (Jefferson) Ky.
