Abstract:
Shortly after graduating from high school in 1958, Andy Thompson went to work with the Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated in Charlotte, painting signs for them. In the late 1980s Thompson retired when the company stopped painting works on brick. He has kept busy, though, with new contracts and restoring signs that are fading away. These are called ghost signs. In 2011, the Coca-Cola decided to help fund the restoration of these signs, and Thompson is back with Coke where he began fifty-five years ago.
