Other Information

This was originally a black background Mail Pouch sign which had been overpainted red. It was as the sign was bleeding through the red overpaint that Photos 1-8 were taken. Photo 9, a 2023 Google street view, the barn has been repainted red and the Mail Pouch sign is now *GONE* once again.

Photos 11-13 are Vintage Aerial views. They are views of the rear of the barn which is the Gambrel Roofed barn in the distance. These are provided for supplemental informaition.
