The fading, peeling advertising signs on brick walls, which can still be found across the country, are
sometimes called “ghost signs". The products they advertised are usually long gone from any stores

found after a fire or storm exposes a wall that was hidden behind another building. They appear as
memories from our past that are fading into time.
