John Bull Tyres
Old advertisement for John Bull & Trisun tyres which were available from Kennings tyre and exhaust centre. This painted bill-board was prominently displayed up until the early 1980's when it was overpainted with black paint. During the last few years, the paint has been removed to show the advert underneath. Alan Heardmans picture from 2009:- Image shows slightly more black paint, so maybe weathering is giving a helping hand.
