G. F. Riley's Tin Shop (PG XXVI)



Painted Gentleman No. 26 resides on North Montgomery Street in Hollidaysburg, PA. This Mail Pouch sign sits a half a block south of Allegheny Street and appears to be a vacant building. Mr. Riley, I'm sure, hasn't fabricated anything here in a long time and even though there are signs in the windows, I don't think much sheet metal work has been happening lately. Seeing this makes you think when you drive through an old town just what could be lurking out back. Makes you want to drive down the alleys instead of the main drag.
