Here's a crude collage of these signs I put together a few months ago.
Free Image to use as you want; commercial use is okay, I just ask that you don't sell or give away the images as your own. You can find more freebies at my website: (as well as a larger, high resolution version of this image) www.shannon-palmer.com/blog and you can also purchase a pack of 80 premium stock images (mostly textures) for $10.
I'd love to see what you use these for, so please post in the comments if you make anything!
Barely.

This was on the day I went to see the Edward Hopper & Company exhibit at the Fraenkel Gallery with Rai. Who is wonderful.
