In February 2012 I stumbled upon a trove of company documents from the 1940s and 1950s at a demolition site in Footscray, Melbourne. Here I tell the stories associated with those documents: the records of signwriting company Lewis & Skinner, and the tattered books of correspondence connected with writer Morris West and the radio serial company he started and ran, Australasian Radio Productions. Plus the more general exploration of 'ghost signs' that my discovery has sparked.

Some more country Victorian ghost signs, courtesy of Geoff
Today Geoff from Shepparton went out and found a group of very cool signs. All of these are from Euroa, except the last two which are from Murchison. Thanks for letting me share them Geoff :)
