Ghost Sign on College Street

This photo is from the Toronto Archives.

It is a picture of 370 College Street, and was taken in June 1958.

The building with the Pepsi Cola sign is "Quality Bakery", and the panel truck parked on the street is their delivery vehicle.



Below, is a picture taken recently of the same block of storefronts.

The bakery is gone, and it looks like there are a few computer stores inhabiting the area; as well as some graffiti on the white arch of the building to the west.


A close-up of the side of the building reveals yet another ghost sign.

I can read some of the words:

"Connor's Bakery"......"We Deliver" and there seems to be a head shot of a uniformed person.

It's pretty difficult to see any of the old "Pepsi Cola" sign, as it may have been painted over, at one time.
