Artist Kathy Piccione is back in her hometown of Beloit to restore a
colorful piece of history on the north side of La Casa Grande, 618 Fourth St.
She is bringing vintage advertisements for Coca-Cola and Galvanic soap back to their former glory. On Wednesday, visitors were stopping to watch her work and inquiring about the project.
“Beloit is excited to have this restored,” Piccione said
She started three weeks ago and estimates it will be complete in another week. The images are estimated to be 100 to 110 years old.
