An Ephemeral reader sent in this photo of side-by-side faded ads between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue.
They’re tricky to make out, but it looks like “Sherman Square Motors Corp” on the right. Sherman Square—the little park down the street on 70th Street.
As for the ad on the left, this online collection of faded ads revealed it: “Livingston Automobile Radiators.”

It’s amazing so many faded ads still exist around the city. You see them everywhere if you look up.
