Harry Susman Novelties

Also, the garage in front is fabulously retro 50s.

The comment thread details a history, both of this sign and of Coca Cola.

Dartmouth Arms advertising ghost

I've meant to photo this one for months, but I nearly always go past it at night. The other weekend we had breakfast in the Dartmouth Arms and emerged in daylight.
