When it comes to vintage advertising, some people are opposed to restoration that “muralizes” the original piece. This Ivory Soap ghost sign was restored first in 1996, and again 2025. I’m on the fence because sometimes the restoration is done well and it doesn’t feel like the ad has lost it’s original flavor. Others? Not so much.

Do we let things naturally fade into oblivion or do what we can to help them stick around?

    Hmm… I wonder too about fading away as I’ve had 72 years, 56 and counting on a variety of motorcycles. Thank you for sharing your experiences to help me want to keep going a little longer.
