Ghost Signs of Sasser, Georgia

Sasser, Georgia, has an approximate population of 250. It is situated along the Columbus Southern railway and had a population of 412 in 1930. The downtown area boasts a traditional main street thoroughfare seen in so many small towns. One building was once painted with an advertisement for Coca-Cola, and the other is Ballard’s Obelisk Flour, a Kentucky flour company that ceased operation in 1951. Their ghost signs persist today.
