this coffee sign was the first to catch my eye and then I noticed the sign for cigarettes. please click on photo for a clearer picture and more detail.
I just can't catch up with modern times. A cup of coffee is not something I would buy, since I rarely drink it, so when I see a sign like that all I can think of is back in the day when I did sometimes buy it - more years ago than I care to say. It cost a nickel.
That's funny...kinda like the camera stores that advertise, "Price too low to show. Call!"
You're showing two addictive drugs here...caffeine in its coffee form has increased in price over the past decades, but cigarettes have gone crazy...I remember 25 cents a pack...now they're five dollars a pack...that makes smoking a financial commitment!
Interesting shot of quite strange signs four our standards. I understand about the cigarettes sign, but to advertise any kind of coffee as cheap it's not a good idea.

Make mine a small coffee with cream.

Anyway, it's a fine photograph!
