Kronenbourg and Vermouth Noilly Prat, Montlieu-la-Garde

The grange on which yesterday's ghost sign can be seen has more to offer than just lubricants. Indeed the whole front of the building facing the former route of the Nationale 10 was used for advertising.

There might have been other products or services advertised on this wall but nowadays it is the names of two alcoholic drinks that stand out.

On the left is a ghost sign for Kronenbourg. Some information about this beer was posted earlier: see Kronenbourg, Saint-André-de-Cubzac.

And on the right is a better-preserved sign for the Noilly Prat. To find out more about this particular brand of vermouth, check this earlier post: Vermouth Noilly Prat, Saint-André-de-Cubzac

Part of another advert can be seen on the left of the picture below but I haven't managed to identify it.

Location: former RN10, Montlieu-la-Garde, Charente-Maritime
