Denninger's Coke Sign

From the May 16th weekly `You Asked` Segment of CH Hamilton`s evening news comes this gem of a find. The Denninger`s store on King Street in Hamilton is located on the sight once the home of Andrew Ross Carriage and Wagon Builders.



Ross opened in 1888. His carriages where used to transport Coca-Cola around Hamilton. The sign had been covered up for 95 years.

It has only been visible recently when the dilapidated eyesore of a building next door was demolished.



The sign was believed to be painted on the building in 1906, the year Coca-Cola began bottling in Canada and introduced the slogan `relieves fatigue`.
