The Wolf family operated this bakery called Wolf's Bakery for close to 50 years. In 1999, the Wolfs retired and the business was sold. The neon was removed and the sign was sprayed over with primer. I was crushed to see this sign go. My grandmother worked there in the 70's. Days later and to my amazement the original base color of yellow and maroon had reappeared. The baker outline was repainted and a few days later the lettering was masked off and repainted in its original form. All the light bulb sockets were repaired or replaced. What a pleasure it was to see this sign restored when so many are being torn down. 04-07
