Description
Mail Pouch barns were one of the first outdoor advertising methods. Starting in 1891 at it's height in the 1960s about 20,000 Mail Pouch barns were scattered across 22 states. Two man crews toured the roads in Model T Trucks painting sometimes two barns a day. This Garage/barn along with many many others have disappeared into history and it will not be much longer until they all are gone. Taken with Kodak Infrared film, which has also disappeared, to give it it's mysterious stark appearance.
