Nicole Donohoe of Chicago’s School of the Art Institute has created an interactive neighborhood map where you can search for the city’s “ghost signs,” or ancient advertisements for goods and services that may not exist anymore. You can also check out her links for more pages about ghost signs that might be in your neck of the woods.
