Everyone but me probably already knew this, but for anyone who did not, and is interested in vintage anything and/or history, will like this.
This guy on the sign that I casually and ignorantly referred to as "the stick figure" is a celebrity.
He is Reddy Kilowatt and has his own dot org.
I'll let you do your own Googling for more info, but
Wikipedia says that
"Reddy was created at the Alabama Power Company by Ashton B. Collins, Sr., and debuted March 11, 1926. He was subsequently licensed by some 300 electrical companies in the U.S. and abroad looking to sell homes on using the relatively new technology."
Reddy, please accept my apology and Rita, thanks so much for the fun information!
Just a random post from when I was in Attalla, Alabama for the US 11 Yard Sale in May.
The stick figure is obviously enjoying his electrocution.
And I liked this old building facade.
