"Blue Coal" was for years the sponsor of the old "Shadow" mystery program on the Mutual radio network from 1937 through 1946.
"Before tonight's exciting program begins, here's a word from your neighborhood Blue Coal dealer. Blue Coal is distinguished by the harmless blue dye that indicates you're buying America's finest anthracite." Et cetera. It brings back memories and can be heard online even today. So the building may be abandoned, and the company may be gone, but "The Shadow" is still alive.
