Early style advertizing, Rottenburg am Taube

This is a nice town. It is one of the very few that still have the complete mideval walls. You can walk aroung the ramparts of the whole old city.

These types of signs would normaly have a symbol showing what the store did. Since most people were illiterate.

My sister is in the west end of KY. She is renewing her Canadian Citizenship to be ready if things get bad.

Many places will have a wall hanging of stamped metal with a porcelain painted design on the buildings. Some homes have them for their addresses
