This sign is on the side of the Stiles, Iowa general store. If you look really hard and use your imagination you can see a face! I think the face is sticking its tongue out at you though.

My handmade chalkboard sign for craft shows. I found an old piece of wood at a thrift store for 2 bucks, then I taped off the edges and used chalkboard spray paint on it. Then I just chalked away! A warm welcome to my booth!
If you are in need of a sign to point you in the right direction, look no further than Fort Macleod, Great vintage signs full of character every where you turn. I took loads but had no wish to bore you endlessly with one after another, so I have mish-mashed a few of my favourites together. Sorry if this hurts your eyes...lol
Fort Macleod is a town in the southwest corner of the province of Alberta, Canada. It is named in honour of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Colonel James Macleod. Fort Macleod was recently chosen from 30 communities as the site for the proposed Alberta Police and Peace Officer Training Center, which is expected to cause an economic boom in the region.
The town grew on the location of the Fort Macleod North West Mounted Police Barracks, the first outpost of the North West Mounted Police in Western Canada, established in 1874 on an island on the Oldman River, then moved in 1884 to the actual town location. The Museum of the North West Mounted Police is located in Fort Macleod.
Heritage Canada started a Main Street Restoration Project in 1982, aiming to preserve the sandstone and brick buildings, some dating back to 1878.
I saw this sign in the toilet at work. Somebody has tried to correct the mistake. It made me chuckle though... and nearly cry.
I cannot believe that this has become my most interesting photo! I'm not entirely sure what to make of that!
Big ol' (3.5' x 5') thick coated cardboard SNOBOY Sunkist Lemons sign from the 1950s. Screen printed with neon yellow (and other colors). Double sided with an advert for canned tomatoes (not nearly as fun of an image).
A Larger view to see them better?
When you are asked, "What is the first thing that comes to your mind when I say 'Washington, DC'", what would you say?
Washington Monument?
The Capitol?
White House?
Memorials?
National Mall?
Smithsonial Institute?
Well I think I would say Traffic Chaos. There are so many diversions and roadblocks that even if you have lived your entire life there in the neighborhood you have a good chance of getting lost. I was lost, driving and I was in front of a road block barricade and an officer next to it. I asked him for directions and he kindly gave me the same. The directions involved crossing a one-way street. Unbeknowest to that officer, there was another one in my way, right in the middle of the road, parked car with lights on asking me to turn around. Thanks to the One way, I couldnt get back to the same place again to ask to be rerouted (I should have taken the $10.99 GPS offer). Bottom line? Lets say, I saw the entire DC driving around in a couple of hours, unintentionally :D
The signs above were all photographed on the same morning, while walking around the downtown and tourist areas of DC. On the background is Washington Monument.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
