1878 Buffalo Bill Cody Billboard Restoration
« on: April 30, 2016, 05:38:52 PM »
This 1878 billboard was discovered under a crumbling brick facade that was placed over the original wooden exterior of this building. When all was said and done, the removal and restoration of this poster took 5 years to complete.

And it paid off, beautifully.  clap clap clap
