Description
This is a photograph of an old mural painted on the side of a decaying building in Superior, Arizona. The ad is for Mission Lotta Cola; I believe they were the first beverage producer to bottle a beverage in a 16 ounce size.
I love the blue color and the rust. The mural is painted on the side of a building that looks like it could tumble any day and this wonderful signage will be lost to history. The crumbling stucco tells the sad story. A little piece of our history soon to be gone forever. I'm happy to be able to preserve this beautiful image.
This work would be a nice addition to a collection of advertising art or for anyone who collects Soda memorabilia or just likes history.

Thanks, Chastity. I think it's beautiful. Unfortunately it's probably gone by now. The advertisement was on the side of a crumbling building. I feel very fortunate to have preserved it!

Very cool! This is a very nice capture of history and gives the photo a very nice effect.

I hate to see old buildings disappear. I think you have done a wonderful job here by preserving what you could. I agree entirely with you about the colours. It looks great. v.
