Very Old Pet Milk Carton sign ...Mount Airy, NC Roadside America, Living In North Carolina, Southern Heritage, Tar Heel, Mount Airy, Andy Griffith, Got Milk?, Trade Sign, Iphone Photo

A very old (but still turning) sign at a Pet Milk distribution warehouse in Mount Airy NC. They don't make them like this anymore. Sort of a landmark on US-52 North. In bad need of a fresh coat of paint and one of those things you don't think about as you pass it every day, but one day they will tear it down, and folks will all of a sudden get nostalgic for it.

Born to Chinese parents, conjoined twins Eng and Chang Bunker became famous throughout the world as "Siamese twins." After years of being displayed at exhibitions, they settled in the mountains of North Carolina in the 1830s. NPR's Michel Martin learns more about their remarkable story from descendant Alex Sink.
