Does anyone know where I can find images or signs that still exist of the old Cincinnati landmark graphics?  They are hard to describe but they included CUT, Carew, Riverfront, Music Hall, etc.

 

The CUT webpage has one still but there used to be on for Fountain Square et al too.

I have a room that I want to incorporate this as the painting scheme.

 

Thanks.

Bumping...sorry.  I was hoping somebody would know and maybe that person has missed this topic.

I know a guy who has physical artwork for most of these.  He's a retired graphic designer living in Clifton.  Not sure I should just publish his email address though.  If I have time later I'll shoot him an email and see if he can provide something for you.  Send me your email address in a PM if you're interested.

There is one of riverfront out and about.  I want to say just west of 75 downtown or east somewhere around greyhound.  I remember seeing it within the past year and thinking how outdated it was...

UncleRando...PM'd you.

 

The background on this is I am making a room with alot of my Cincinnati memorabilia in it and want to use these icons painted on the wall...I thought first of a lifelike mural but I think these will be easier to do.

 

Well...I am quite familiar with the old brown ones that were wayfinding and parking signs for the stadium and coliseum.  I don't remember though if they had the "icons" but it sounds like they did.  Here is a list of ones I can remember:

 

Fountain Square

Carew Tower

Union Terminal

Riverfront Stadium

Riverfront Coliseum (this one was laughable because of the pedestrian nature of the architecture)

Public Landing (had a paddlewheeler)

 

Any others?
