As a somewhat tenuous nod to Halloween, we have come across some ghost signs which can be found on buildings throughout the town, remnants of hand-painted advertising signage, above doors or on walls where they were never meant to last forever. You can see them in our Edinburgh Collected scrapbook.
Some have survived, often revealed during refurbishment, you can sometimes catch a glimpse of one before new signage is added.
Most people who have grown up in Edinburgh will remember this place, and will be pleased to see that ice cream is healthy after all!
These are a few from our Edinburgh Collected community archive, maybe you can help find some more and add them to the collection?
