A. F. Millier Taximeter Repairs Ghost Sign

This taximeter repairs business opened in 1942 in Surry Hills. Back then it was a poor inner-city area that hadn’t shrugged off its association with the razor gang wars of the 1920s. Now it’s expensive real estate and the building is occupied by a film production company. 

I like that they’ve not only kept the faded sign, but also resisted the urge to restore it.

Thanks for hosting Marlieske!
