Longtime followers of this blog will know that I have a fascination with revised signs. Here’s one that caught my attention recently.

The blocked out letters are intriguing. The sign probably used to say “Stanley’s Smoke & Grocery.” I suspect that in order to abide by anti-smoking laws, the owner’s made an adjustment so as to avoid replacing the sign entirely.

I wonder if attentive smokers still expect to find their vice inside.
