Tom Russell RecordsThis was posted by someone on another site and there had previously been some discussion about it's location.
It was recently the location of Global Video or some other video shop. It is near the Co-op Funeral Parlour that is on he corner of Academy Street.

I assume these on London Road have been photographed a lot 
At first glance I thought this lettering was old, but it isn't

Well preserved too 
Is that the canopy all rolled up just below the lettering?
|

Yes, it is indeed. Just passed it on my way to the shops, and they have already covered it up again, for the next generation to take pictures of the same old signs in 20 years

Stuball, I heard you might know more about this gorgeous building in Ibrox?

Used to be a 'wood bending' place.... they made things like the original handrails. Some nice curved handrails would take a long time as the wood would be soaked for days then pulled into shape and carved.
I drew attention to the building last year as the facing was falling off in large chunks. Now, the frost is making the brickwork fall apart
