From Alex: Blog looks great. I took this picture of an old gas pump today in Red Hook on Van Brunt between Commerce and Delevan. Its not an ad but I thought it fit the theme on your site and relevant for the times. I believe this is a Wayne 866 Clock Face model. Wayne was the first maker of gas pumps, started in Ft Wayne, Indiana back in the 1880’s.

Photos of Thomas Witte & his work taken by Frank H. Jump @ Farm On Adderley with an iPhone.
What an incredible collection of oil on wood renderings of Coney Island Avenue, Ditmas Park and its environs. Witte captures the neighborhood and signage during our time for all time. These images will be further immortalized in the next Nicole Holofcener film with Catherine Keener.
