Some of you may have seen this beauty in our stories recently!
Every now and then, we come across something that isn't technically mid-century modern furniture but has a rich piece of Americana history behind it.
This incredible 12-foot-long, hand-painted sign once hung at Nashville's beloved Opryland USA theme park before it closed in 1997. The Grizzly River Mercantile was located at the exit of the Grizzly River Rampage ride, where visitors could pick up souvenirs after getting soaked! A former park employee told me during summer time he sold tons of dry shirts 😅
Between the history, the bold colors, and the sheer size of this thing, it's a pretty special piece of Nashville nostalgia.
Tag a Nashville business that needs this 12-foot piece of history hanging on its wall! We'd love to see it find the perfect home where it can be appreciated for years to come.
