Dapper Dan

This sign was hidden underneath a 1970s-era discount store sign, which was in turn hidden under a recent 99-cent store sign on 14th Street near 7th Avenue.



The space is for rent.

Maybe, with the economy still in downswing, we'll be able to enjoy Dapper Dan a little while longer.

Was this the 99-cent store next to the wonderful doughnut shop?

Thanks for posting that! I love it when the city's past gets unveiled. That sign makes me wonder what it must have been like to live here when that store was new (certainly before my day!) Hope the sign stays there until next week so I can get some shots of it.
