The University of Arkansas Press in 1997 published a book called Ghost Signs of Arkansas  written by Cynthia Lea Haas with photographs by Jeff Holder.  It shows lots of what they call ghost signs that remain on old buildings, perhaps not in the greatest shape but with lasting charm and forever me...
