Lots more Witco was there back then, makes since Mount Vernon being the home of Witco. Also Google Streets only shows the two big fountain tikis with the smaller carvings on the sign pole not there now. Did anyone mention that the two rods angling out from the sign were spears? Have to say that the tikis on the sign with the spears reminds me of the Seattle Tropics motels sign (here being removed from the property). aloha, tikicoma [ Edited by: tikicoma 2015-03-19 00:38 ]
