Other Information

Photo 1 is an enlarged inset view from Photo 2.

As noted in the progression of the photgraphs, the Mail Pouch sign was very faded in 1965 indicating a late 1940's or early 1950's date for the original painting of the sign. The last view (1994) the sign is extremely faded and may have faded completely away before the barn was resided.
