Hand Painted

Jul 24, 12 Hand Painted

Check out this stunner! Over a 100 years ago, this sign was born. Red shaded drop shadow, bold gold letters, black background on wood, beveled corners. It measures – 44 1/2″ x 16 1/2″. Back then, coffee wasn’t as much of a favorite as it is now. Typically European descent liked this golden brew, however by 1907 Ethiopia was exporting as much as 1, 000, 000 kilograms of the bean beverage, satisfying our needs. I wonder how much is imported to Toronto every year. Anyone have these numbers?
