Whyalla - Signwriting Capital of the World?

Day 5 - Tuesday 17th July - 763 Km - Port Lincoln to Adelaide

Whyalla, second largest city in SA, has an amazing collection of signage and fonts on shops and pubs. I couldn’t work out if they were conserved for heritage reasons or had just never been repainted.

A small sample:

Spencer Hotel - a lovely Art Deco building with brilliant signage.

Spencer Hotel Whyalla

The Whyalla Hotel looking a bit worse for wear. The verandah posts are rotting and the balconies are collapsing. Can someone help?
