I'm kind of surprised no one commented on this shot, as I know several of you must live within a few miles of where it was taken:

I count two.  Is there more?

Perhaps Warren's is the Starbucks of this era.  Or McDonalds.

The name is there three times, twice horizontally and once vertically, all within ten feet of one another.

Where was this photo taken???
I will be in the in the Beverly/Salem MA area Wednesday; I plan on visiting the Beverly Historical Society
with the Walker Transportation Collection. The museum is daiplaying the locomotive models of
Wilbur T. Frey until Feb. 26th.
If Warren's is/was in the area I will take a photo and have it posted.
