Hi Frank... I enjoy reading your blog. Attached is a photo I took in NYC before moving to Scottsdale, AZ. It’s from November 2002. I was going to Photo Expo at Jacob Javitz and walked around a little before and and found this. I enjoy taking photographs of old ads with my large format cameras. Enjoy! Rich

Little side note, parts of Forrest Gump were filmed in Flagstaff and the Mission Ice Cream sign is visible in the scene where a man is asking Forrest for bumper sticker ideas.
