NEBRASKA NEWSPAPER UNION and YORK BLANK BOOK CO. are entry points into local history and the history of small-town newspaper journalism.
The ghost signs can be distinguished after comparing historic photos that show them clearly with the confusing jumble remaining.
NEBRASKA NEWSPAPER UNION was painted when the building was new; YORK BLANK BOOK CO. in a few years. The signs were painted on the south wall of the building at 613 Grant Ave. in York. That wall is on the north side of the alley running from Grant Avenue to Lincoln Avenue, parallel to 6th Street.
