22 N. Main Street,
Phillipsburg, New Jersey
This Picture was taken July 26, 2003. With the windows painted white and the window over the right hand door uncovered, the building looks brighter. The repair page will be online soon.

This historic location was discovered November 24, 2001.
The FOR SALE sign in the front window received attention.

On February 6, 2002, this building was purchased by: Daniel Z. Seyler. In March 2002, National Lambast, Inc. started to operate out of this location. Thanks for keeping in touch.

Photographs of artwork on the southern side of this gray building indicate there was once an advertisement here. The implication is this building was the tallest building on this street. The faded word is unmistakable, "CUBANOLA". A search on the internet of the word "CUBANOLA" indicates this advertisement may have been for a RAGTIME SONG called,
"The Cubanola Glide"
by Harry Von Tilzer, CIRCA 1909

A visit to the property on January 7, 2002 discovered the faded word,"CIGAR" painted under the word "CUBANOLA". Continued research discovered, maybe it's just a another common hundred year old advertisement for CUBANOLA-CIGARS. Another search on the internet found the CUBAN cigar industry was nationalized in 1958. When the CIGAR industry was nationalized, the word CUBANOLA became a nonword.
