The Painted Brick Building Sides of buildings in Wyoming's towns and cities, and sometimes from other areas of the West. An examination of old style advertising. . . as it looks today.

Wax Trax, Denver Colorado.
This is a photograph of Wax Trax, the legendary Denver record story located in two side by side old buildings in that city. Currently its adorned with a large painting of Lemmy Kilmister, the late front man for the band Motorhead.
This photo was obviously taken from a distance, and inside a vehicle, so the large mural isn't easily visible in the photo but it was taken from a well known photograph of Kilmister in which he's wearing a short brimmed hat featuring a U.S. Army crossed saber device and an Ordinance branch device. Kilmister had a thing for military paraphernalia.

Sonic Rainbow, Casper Wyoming: Independent Record Store Day, 2017
This store has featured here before. This is the Sonic Rainbow record store in Casper Wyoming. Every year it features new original window art for Independent Record Store Day. On this occasion, its patrons were lined up early in the morning waiting for it to open for that event.
The crowd would grow larger on this rainy morning. These people were there early.
