The Abernathy Furniture Company was a major furniture manufacturer in Kansas from its start in Leavenworth KS in 1856 to its last day of operation in the 1950s. More information on this heritage KS company can be found here: (visit link)

After moving to Kansas City KS in 1878, the company eventually expanded to fill almost 2 full city blocks in the West Bottoms area of Kansas City KS.

There are several ghost signs at the old Abernathy Furniture complex that can be seen very well from the I-70, however

-->DO NOT PULL OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE I-70 TO TAKE A PHOTO, as this is TOO DANGEROUS!! <--

The signs can also be seen from Wyoming Street near the I-70 overpass.
