For more than a half century, one noteworthy sight has loomed over visitors to the boardwalk in Rehoboth Beach.
It’s the big orange Dolles sign that sits atop the salt-water taffy store of the same name. The sign was erected in 1962 when Dolles was rebuilt after a three-day storm destroyed much of the boardwalk.
But next summer the landmark will be gone from its customary perch, and could disappear forever from the oceanfront.
