Normally when I take photos of old signs around Melbourne they are on the outside of buildings.
Last night Zita came over to give Rae and a little ‘grown up’ time. We headed around to the Famous Blue Raincoat for a drink and on the way saw that Triple J Cellars was moving from one shop to the new building next door. The old shop dates back to the 50s and I found some great old signs that hadn’t been touched in years.
My guess is that the two McWilliam’s signs are 50s era originals, as is the ‘Jet Air Door’ above the door, and the rest in the slide show date from the 70s and 80s. They’ll all be gone over the next couple of days as the place is gutted for its next occupants; I wonder if any of their fittings will be around for someone to photograph in 2057?
