Gay's Arcade Erected 1885
GAY'S ARCADE. ERECTED 1885. JAMES CUMMING, ARCHITECT.
A close-up photo of an old stone building plaque reading “GAY’S ARCADE,” with the inscription noting that it was erected in 1885 by architect James Cumming. The joke comes from the modern meaning of “gay,” making the formal historical sign unintentionally funny and useful as an absurd reaction image.
