For example, what WAS this place? And what did that sign used to say?

If it was near a county line, I’d think it had been a beer store, sited as close as possible to a dry county. But it was in the middle of the county, so that explanation doesn’t seem to make sense.

It was on a hill, though, and commanded a fine view of the county.
