Wall advertising

I photographed this (newly repainted?) wall advertising in Apeldoorn:
"meubelfabrikanten (1901) 
D.N. van Heerden 
ontwerpen voor 
woningsinrigtingen (1923) 
Davoud (1972) 
in English: "furniture makers (1901) - D.N. van Heerden - designs for home furnishings (1923) - Davoud (1972)

This address at the Hoofdstraat used to be the location for Davoud Perzische Tapijten (Davoud Persian Carpets) - hence the advertising on the wall. I haven't been able though to find any information regarding the name 'D.N. van Heerden' and/or the dates that are mentioned. Maybe they also had a store here once?

  5. I love that they restored the old ghost signs Marleen, advertising back then was a lot simpler than all the neon signage they use these days ☺

  10. The signs seem to tell the building's history. I like that brick.
