97 Years?

Update: Just a few short weeks since your correspondent reported on the A&B Lewis Inc., sign at the corner of Broadway and Northern Boulevard it looks like the business is kaput. In that post, I called attention to "Established 1919" claim on all four sides. Curious that in painting over the business name, the painters left the business address and the date. If I were a cynical person, I'd propose that in a few weeks there will be a brand new business on the spot, also established in 1919. Maybe this one will survive to celebrate its centenary.

Here's the same building (and same car) a few weeks back.
