United Banks -- residue

Fossil evidence of UBC, UBD, UBSC

that can still be seen in the wild.

Sightings by Jonesy:
In 2005 I moved from Gunnison to Pueblo. As I poked around Pueblo - getting the lay of the land - I came across the following two items:

The Sangre de Cristo Arts Center in downtown Pueblo has a 'Donors Wall' on the outside grounds with 8" square, fired clay tiles inscribed with donors' names. I found the United Bank Of Pueblo here -- having given at the $10,001-$20,000 level.

(Columbia Savings & Loan - our old neighbors across the parking lot - is found here, too.)

One of the places I like to eat breakfast is at Musso's Restaurant in Avondale -- about 2 miles east of me and 7 miles ESE of downtown Pueblo.

Here we can still find an old United Bank sign in the window. It is cracked/crazed from time. But, being in a north-facing window no doubt has helped it endure the passage of time.

The illegible (here) text beneath the "United Bank" says "Challenging Ourselves" -- which might set the time frame for when this went on the window.

OK, my standard request goes here: I need material for this page from you. Send me an email and we can discuss what you've found in the wild and how we can get an image of it up on the web site: email for UBSC Website
