signs (general)
belgian workmen wear caps
compare this to the Swedish one and you’ll see these two chaps have been shovelling the same pile back and forth !
detailed construction
look at the detail on this sign (which i may have photo’d before, but always worth a repeat). you can almost hear him straining with the weight of that shovel.
caution: boys crossing
girls are no worry. but watch out for the boys.
vacancies
here’s some hand written signs from a non-chain hotel. they’ve got a room vacancy and job vacancy for a cleaner. perhaps it’s a very messy room.
in times of trouble
in times of trouble, don’t turn to alcholo (especialy largger) [splling dlberate]
festival signs
no crowd surfing signs were visible again this year, but this time with explanatory wording:
normally it’s don’t drink and drive, but at festivals it’s don’t smoke and drive:
honesty
no body likes dishonest thieves.
thiefery in england is still legal of course, but the long arm of the law and the slightly stumpy arm of the underground have reached a compromise. thieves can still do their thiefery, but they have to put a sign up outside whilst they are working so the police have a sporting chance of catching them.
here is one such sign:
equality in stockholm
there seems to have been some rather clever editing done on a number of Stockholm’s street crossing signs. here is one such example:
biological hazard
the trains on my toilets (reverse that) are absolutely horrible. so it came as no surprise to see this tape stuck over the door. biological hazard – danger of infection.
i suspect this isn’t an official sign …
bottoms up
nice arrow work here.
