The Coleman slides

I've been picking out the more interesting pictures from box S7. These are road and pub signs from the 70s.

This is the Greyhound pub some time in the 1970s.

And this is what it looks like today.

The Chianti bottle has gone and the dog has descended about eight inches. The Labore Et Honore emblem has been repainted although Work and Honour is the last thing that is on the mind of the modern day customers. Only a rusty iron rod remains of the ornate ironwork holding the pub sign board and the chimney has been much shortened.

They are from the Tevion 5mp scanner which is why the quality is poor.
