A post card from my hometown of Jersey Shore, PA. in fact it's of a building that I used to live in! It was my first apartment actually. First floor and all the windows you can see on the 1st floor was my apartment and the building just behind that is my friend John Aikey's house! I had to buy this.

By the way- The "Killroy was here" watermark is simply because this is the sellers image...lol

I found on a local real estate dealers webpage that this building is/was up for sale. I snagged the images for this thread and my album until I can get back into town to take my own-which I AM going to do.

It's not stuccoed warrehouse. It's just paint. I agree though that they should have left it alone.
