This ghost sign can be found on the former Twomax knitwear factory on Old Rutherglen Road in the Gorbals area of Glasgow. It was uncovered and restored when the building was being converted into housing in the early 20202s. Twomax was founded in the 1920s by Hugh McClure and Donald McIntosh (the two Macs from which the name was derived. It started in a disused pub in the Bridgeton area of Glasgow before moving to an old cotton mill on Old Rutherglen Road. From here they produced upmarket knitwear which was sold by the likes of Selfridges, House of Fraser and Harrods. Their clothes were seen as being particularly fashionable in the 1960s and 1970s, but by the 1980s the firm was in decline and the factory soon closed. This print is a collage of multiple versions of this ghost sign combined together.

The print itself is 7.25 inches by 9 inches (18.5 cm by 23cm), and it comes mounted in a white 1.5 inch (3.5 cm) mount with a total size of 10 inches by 12 inches (25.5 cm by 30.5cm).

A second version of this print, featuring the original single copy of this sign can be found here.
