One of the many “ghost signs” around town of industries from years past. The link HERE claims the building was the home of the Columbia Laundry Machinery Company, but the first word is hard to see, because another word appears to be superimposed on it. One appears to be “SUPERIOR,” in which case the sign would read “SUPERIOR LAUNDRY MACHINERY.” The word at the top, near the peak, looks like “KEYSTONE.”
A few steps down the street at Bootleg Antiques, another ghost sign is being revived.
A few days later, as painting progressed, the sign looked like this.
As with the previous sign, the first word isn’t legible.
