They've even got doughnuts spelled the old-fashioned way. I don't think I'm going to find a painted sign in Chicago I like better than this West Side one, or take a sign/building photo in Chicago this summer I like better. I saw this the day I first went biking after the two months I couldn't because of the accident/bike trouble.
I wanted to put up a Chicago fave for August 11, the anniversary of the day I moved here, years ago. To celebrate I'll try to get someplace I've long meant to visit here...
This photo was also blogged here with some other cheery yellow ones. I finally joined the Spelling Mistakes pool with this shot...Whee, this photo made Explore, that explains why it got favorited by someone whose page is all in French!
HDR Image from a single Photo processed and edited, using “Photomatix Pro 4” “Photoshop CS5” and “Topaz.” Found this old sign in Moulton, Texas.
Have a great weekend my friends.
The Agilitynut just reminded me that I have this little number just waiting for a moment to debut. Hutchinson, Kansas.
Mrs. W. went to Idaho last week and took several portentous shots, including this one.
Hyperginchy doesn't even begin to describe this one.
Space Burger - made with pure Martian, extra ketchup on request.
Former Save-Rite Gas roadside sign along Haddonfield Road in Cherry Hill. If I remember correctly, the price of the gas was posted in the center rectangular portion with Save-Rite in the top red portion and Gas in the lower portion.

the astrological sign of scorpio is a water sign and is symbolized by the scorpion.. Scorpios are emotional, loyal, and passionate ... They are also known for being resourceful, observant and dynamic.. On the negative side they can be jealous, suspicious, manipulative and obsessive.
it's supposed to look as though i am the scorpion.. hmm.. not super thrilled with it.. but i ended up processing an outtake from a shoot a few days ago because it was very cloudy today and i just couldn't get outside to take a pic! yes, all my rules have been broken to the 365 :P but i am still going on!
my best friend from grade school kat is a scorpio.. happy birthday dear friend!
and for brenda.. i think you mentioned you were scorpio..happy b-day! and of course to my other friends who i may not know has had or will have a scorpio b-day. :) xoxoxo
so exhausted tonight. if i don't catch ya tonight.. will tomorrow!
This is a sign that was found when the building it was attached to was renovated in Summer 1996. The company that used to occupy the building was called "Brown, Muff & Co. Ltd.".
My immature side found the "brown muff" but rather amusing. I originally took the same photo a couple of years back when I first came to Bradford but that was before I owned a digital camera
On S Henderson St at Renton Ave S. Points to Link light rail station, Chief Sealth Trail, Kubota Gardens, and the Rainier Beach business district (taped over for some reason). Also a signed bicycle route.
The colours were just magnificent around Bow Lake, Banff National Park, Alberta, on 29 August 2013. Thought I'd post this one, even though you can only see a tiny splash of turquoise of the lake through the trees. The wonderful mix of greens and the brilliant red of the Fireweed leaves were breathtaking. Definitely feels like Fall is beginning.
So it would appear, but in fact it was part of the sign identifying a Seat & Body Shop.
One from the archives, 14 years ago. As usual, stumbled across it by accident.
After some high winds, a crew has to replace the Trauma Center sign... that's what they get for going with the lowest bidder.
Well, the signage and everything inside looks a decade or two behind the times, but okay. My August trip to this mostly-disappeared roast beef chain was courtesy of Rax fan (check out his Rax set!) statlerhotel (happy birthday, DK!). I hope to photograph that motel sign in back next trip to Joliet. For more about Rax, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rax_Restaurants
Park Rapids,MN
We rescued this sign after the motel had been sold to a developer. Vintage motel signs are a favorite,the variety is endless,every town had these litte motels welcoming travelers to stay here and they are just fun!
The latest donation to the Museum of Neon Art (MONA) is more complicated than it may seem. This cursive script text, Lanz, is about twelve feet long with beautiful curls, but what makes it so amazing is that it appears the can was illuminated with only two tubes of neon. Judging by the four electrode holes in the can, two holes per tube, there were only two tubes lighting up this long and curly sign. I find it absolutely amazing.
Big Goodyear sign on the west side of Columbus. Trying out a different camera here. Not sure what I think of it yet - hard to get used to not having a viewfinder after all these years.
tied up crosswise with a black hemp palm rope. It is put on the ground in Japanese gardens and suggests: "No enter beyond here".
the patches and signs on a service dog aren't suggestions - they are absolute commands. were i in a wheelchair or had some other apparatus to aid me in daily life, you wouldn't randomly approach me and start touching it. my dog is cute, friendly, loving, and happy. she is also at work anytime she is wearing her jacket, which is any time we are not at home. feel free to ask me questions, but do not talk to my dog, do not reach out to my dog, do not make and hold eye contact with my dog. she is on the job, and cannot be disturbed. a lot of people's time, effort and money went into her selection and training, all of it charity work. you are the human in the encounter - read the signs, and obey. it will help my dog do her job, which helps me live my life, and you and i can agree that she is cute and friendly without interfering with her purpose and focus.
So sad, Tommy Bartlett show has been permanently closed.
After losing the 2020 season to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Tommy Bartlett Show portion of the business will be permanently closing after a 68-year run. The Wisconsin Dells won't be the same without it.
Found these in a small Kansas town. I was just so surprised to find this Westinghouse sign, and they are both in great shape
I see signs now all the time
That you’re not dead, you're sleeping
I believe in anything
That brings you back home to me

NOTE: THIS IS PHOTOSHOPPED. (The original sign does not warn of radiation.)
A sign warning of radiation by a dirt road in rural America.
This is the standard shape of the warning traffic-sign "Children" in Romania. The two oulines are drawn in a strange combination of abstratization and realistic detail. The boy is leading the girl; he carries a briefcase, she carries a purse. The boy is wearing short pants, the girl is wearing a mini-skirt. The girl has a pony tail and a knotted ribbon. (This example is from Bucharest, Câmpia Libertăţii street.)
Shark warning sign. Just a week before be went there was a shark attack in Kihei, Maui which was only about a mile from where we were staying.
Popular collectibles, particularly in the middle of the country. Seen at the Pioneer Auto Show in Murdo, South Dakota.
These signs are so huge! I had to take a picture of them!
