Tell the World

July 17, 1929,
Oshkosh Daily Northwestern
I found this news item rather curious.  I have located no evidence to date that this sign was ever erected.  And unless I'm wrong, the stand pipe should have been erected at Second and Manitowoc where the old water tower was.  Perhaps the residents of the area decided they didn't want an illuminated sign in their otherwise residential neighborhood?   I leave it to the better historians and researchers out there to set me straight.
