Earlier this year, we shared twelve amazing vintage ads shared by The Denver Eye, a Facebook page that showcases memorable images from the area’s colorful history.
But as our Bree Davies pointed out in a post featuring her picks for the five best sites for looking at Denver’s past, there are other places online to celebrate the Mile High City.
A great example is Save the Signs. The page was originally focused on saving vintage signage on Colfax, but over time, the scope has broadened.
Photo posts include great signs from around the country, but the majority are from Colorado – including occasional re-shares from, appropriately enough, The Denver Eye.
Will you step up to support Westword this year?
At Westword, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $20,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $50,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of Westword, now’s the time to give back.
Below, see ten additional images from Colorado that will give you a feel for the page, complete with Save the Sign captions. If they whet your appetite for more (and we have a feeling they will), click here.
