Ohio pages

I'm Doug and pretty this page is pretty much pictures of places I've been to. More recently it's been places around Ohio since that's where I live and I'm always on the lookout for different or unique places to see.

Marblehead Peninsula (16) by Doug Via Flickr: My research has found this character is affectionately known as Handless Jacques by some. Jacques was originally in place in front of Jacques' Roast Beef sandwich restaurant, and held a roast beef sandwich along Lexington Ave in Mansfield, Ohio. Eventually Jacques' changed into a pizzeria. Giant Jacques traded his sandwich for a pizza, and his name for "Big Pierre." What I haven't been able to find is who moved Jacques from Mansfield to Marblehead.

No, that’s not your imagination.  The “OG” isn’t as bright as the rest of the Kroger sign.

American Sign Museum (18) by Doug  

This sign came from "The Satellite Shopland" mall near Disneyland in Anaheim, Calif. It went up in the 1960s- and was intended to look like Sputnik- and came down in 1999 and the Sign Museum acquired in April 2000.

American Sign Museum (15) by Doug Via Flickr: A storefront re-creation of Rohs- an Over-the-Rhine hardware store- shows how the museum considers preservation its mission as well. The sign, neon light, door, and outside panels are all from the original Rohs.
