Great signage in Julian California

We spent part of the day yesterday in Julian, California, an old mining town in the mountains about 1/5 hours from Carlsbad. I am always on the lookout for what other real estate brokerages and agents are doing, and some signs, names, and ads just naturally catch my eye.

I saw this from a distance, and being where we were my first thought it might be a bar or pool hall or something - you know, the old wild west mining thing? When I got close and saw the tag line I thought...ah, resale homes on the mountain, a real estate office. Sometimes I have a one track mind.

 

And of course I immediately thought of good friend Woo Hoo Sally Cheeseman in Hawaii because of the name.

But it turns out Mustang Sally's is a consignment shop of sorts. I still thought it was a great name and it does sorta grab your attention. Needless to say we were not in market for used clothing so went on our way.

HI Jeff,  That is funny.  Because we are in real estate, we immediately think real estate when we see "resale."  I did.  I wonder what others in other lines of work thought that meant at first glance (aside from the mining town stuff of course!).

Michael - could be.

Sally - LOL. Just be careful. I did a search to see if they had a website. Mustang Sally's brings up all sorts of things. :)

Andrew - I loved the sign and it fits right in with the town image.

Susan - LOL. It is SOOO true. It did not realize until I checked it out that is was not a broker.

Hi Jeff ~ It certainly is an eye catcher. Gotta say I was a bit relieved to learn it wasn't a real estate office.

Julian is an interesting little town.  Actually my mind went somewhere else, you know, Mustang Ranch.

At first glance, I was wondering if you were going to tell us something about it having something to do with the song  O.o
