  • Mar 3, 2027: Ghost Signs & Bubble Gum: The O-Pee-Chee Story

    Glencoe Public Library 123 McKellar St., Glencoe, Ontario, Canada

    Dr. Dove will bring this history to life, drawing on his research and his forthcoming documentary, Packaging Fun: London's O-Pee-Chee Company. He'll speak to the significance of Glencoe's own O-Pee-Chee ghost sign — confirmed by Dr. Dove himself as authentic O-Pee-Chee signage, and, by his estimation, among the largest of only a handful still surviving in Canada, making the case for its preservation as a rare and important piece of regional heritage.
