Ghost Signs, Ghost Buildings







The Cupid Candies Kitchen was across from Fat Johnnie's, and the next block up, at 7721 So. Western, that unreadable sign says Physicians Entrance Only. The other two signs are along Archer, and Capra's I recall from when it was still open. Not from hanging out there, just from hearing polkas on summer nights as the Archer bus went by.

I guess if Johnny was so close to cupid candies it's no wonder he was fat.

There is always something creepy and sad about an old sign bleeding through the worn paint on the side of a building.
