Ghost Writing
This service station or repair shop has obviously been closed for a long time. I think I can identify the name of this garage as being Swinn’s or Shwinn’s and the word on the bottom right is Service. I can’t make out the word on the bottom left. It seems to end in an H or an E. All the words that would normally go with a garage, like ‘Repair,’ ‘Automotive‘ or ‘Tire’ don’t really fit. I could use some help on this one. I tried to look it up online, but I could find nothing on this old building or business.
It is located in Northumberland County, Virginia.
Update: Thank you to Ross Walker www.flickr.com/photos/ross_v_walker/ for finding a picture of Swann’s Motor Service in Heathsville, Virginia taken in 2014 before the encroachment of all the vines and trees. www.facebook.com/AbandonedNNK/photos/pcb.312068688942716/...
