Ghost signs, ‘WH Dinwoodie, High Class Provision Merchant’, Shawlands, Glasgow. They’ve been working on this shop for a while, it’s being turned into a pizza place, so presumably these signs will soon be covered again, but at least they’ll be protected for other people to enjoy in a few years😀

Some beautiful and rare ghost signage “Blythswood Press Agency” from Argyle Street, Glasgow. Over the years I’ve photographed many ghost signs for the likes of newsagents, tobacconists, dairies etc. but I’ve never seen one for a press agency - a beauty 😀 #ghostsign #ghostsigns #ghostsignsuk #ghostsignhunters #ghostsignspotting #glasgowghostsigns #ghostsignsglasgow #ghostsignsgla #pressagency #oldsign #oldsigns #handpaintedsigns #glasgow #glasgowcity #glasgowcitycentre #insta_glasgow #glasgowphotographer #glasgowphotography

A nice bit of ghost signage on the corner of Ingram Street and Candleriggs, Glasgow - revealed by the move of the Spitfire Espresso coffee shop. “The Commercial Bank of Scotland” founded in Edinburgh in 1810, eventually becoming part of the Royal Bank of Scotland. At a time when many of the Glasgow markets like the cheese and fruit markets were here, I would imagine this wouid have been a busy bank. #ghostsign #ghostsigns #ghostsignsuk #ghostsignspotting #glasgowghostsigns #ghostsignsglasgow #ghostsignsgla #glasgow #glasgowphotographer #insta_glasgow
