Renovations have been taking place at Team Shear Obsession and Wandering June Boutique located at 529 State Street.
Salon Manager and Boutique Owner Kristen Artrip told News 5 it's believed the sign dates back to 1918.
The advertisement for C.L. Farley Clothing, was found when crews were working to expand the boutique area.
"The goal was to get down to the brick, and they just kept hammering and hammering, and then they saw this [the advertisement]. One of the men on the crew was like stop, stop -- let me send this to the owner. They sent her a picture and she immediately called them and was like, we want that."
The goal is to make the historic find a focal point in the boutique.
