Original Toronto Star caption: Scrubbed clean: Workman Jim Vagenas uses a high-pressure water hose to wash years of grime off the Molson sign that was discovered on an old building being renovated at 1154 Queen St. W. It was a relic of the days when the giants of the beer industry were also into banking.
