Tom, your project has been an enjoyable ride-along. There are a number of evocative images, but I like the Coke sign from Wymore, Nebraska, partly because I just enjoy phantom signs, but even more because people have gone out of their way to paint around the logo, preserving it as evidence of an archaic purpose. Advertising as icon.

Mr. Bun, you're name has been officially entered. That's a personal favorite, too. Thanks!
