Title: Old Sign Uncovered

When workers recently removed some exterior panels from the Phelps Street side of the Federal Building, this old sign was exposed.  I wonder when the Vogue operated.

At the corner, a sign reading: "Lady Orva Hosiery" was uncovered.

Both stores were there in the late 1940's and early 1950's.

For those who might be interested, someone took the time to create a map of downtown Youngstown that shows all the businesses that were there in 1950, and sells it on eBay.
