Hammonds Bros Furniture

We uncovered this sign when the old Fyffe City Hall was torn down. this sign had been covered up since 1957 when the city hall building was built.  Hammond Brothers Furniture was a key business in town for many many years and was not only a furniture store but at one time in the 1950s also served as a restaurant with a very busy soda fountain. Sadly this sign was painted over by the owner of the building shortly after we discovered it. the Old Hammond Brothers building is now a church and the church sign has been painted over this piece of History. You will notice the person who painted the sign signed his name in the bottom corner.
Another piece of history now lost to the ages.
