Lakeview Florist

This photo came from a sign painter's scrapbook that was full of old advertisements, ephemera, etc. Numerous documents point to this man working in Lexington, Kentucky, where I believe this image was taken. It is obvious that the script lettering was gold leaf with a possible matte varnish center decoration. Inscription on the bottom of the florist sign reads, "L. H. Ramsey," which from his collection of letterheads put them at 12 North Limestone St. in Lexington. The phone number was 212. View full size.
