COCA-COLA SIGN, GUTHRIE KENTUCKY

I've always loved old painted signs on commercial buildings. This is a Coca-Cola sign on a late nineteenth century drugstore in Guthrie, Kentucky, north of Nashville. The sign was painted around a rotting fire shutter; my only disappointment is that there is no evidence of the fire shutter having been painted the same as the sign. The sign may predate the Food and Drug Act of 1906, before which Coca Cola was infused with cocaine. No wonder it relieved fatigue.
