New blog: 'The Shifting Sands of London’s Ghost Signs Landscape' at https://ghostsigns.co.uk/2024/01/the-shifting-sands-of-londons-ghost-signs-landscape/

Follow the link above for news of ghost signs lost, partially destroyed, and 'brought back' from the dead, as change is the only constant in the capital.

Fading painted sign on a wall advertising the Lidstone Ltd butchers. Below the name it lists numerous former branches of the business across London. Photo copyright StockCarPete on Flickr.
Repainted sign on a wall that once advertised the Lidstone Ltd butchers. Below the name it lists numerous former branches of the business across London. The paint is very fresh and is a less-than-precise replica of the original.
Portion of a building's wall and roof, with some barely legible letters in faded paint visible on the wall. Looking carefully it is possible to see that it was once a painted sign advertising Germolene.
Large industrial building with a wide painted sign across the very top. The sign reads "Vaneers, Stamford Trading Co. Ltd., Importers, SHO. 5537" where the last bit is the old-format phone number for the business. Photo copyright StockCarPete on Flickr.
