A separate framed photograph goes along with this sign – showing it as it was hung on the original storefront – and history reveals itself when viewing the reverse side of the sign as it bears the original “B. WHITE” sign as photographed and indicates the sign was added on to as the family grew to “B. WHITE and SON.”
