I scanned these for my pal Bill Berberich "BZRK".
He was employed for 25 years by a Pittsburgh sign company. All of these signs are hand-painted. I am lucky enuff to get to do a wall with him this Saturday!
Sally, in case you don't get his email, these are for you. Love....Jill  -

...Pictorial painters were the top dogs of the billboard business back in the "old" days. Sadly, technology has killed the market for these (once) masters...except for big citys like Chicago or NY.

Stevo and Mr. Pickett, Thanks for the compliment, like the walls we did, we don't die, we just fade away. Keep your brushes stiff...........BZRK
PS: Jill's turning into a heck of a "walldog"
