Fortunoff's Sign (1940s)
Pennsylvania & Livonia aves.
East New York, Brooklyn
Max (1896–1987) and Clara (1902–86) Fortunoff opened a neighborhood housewares store "under the El" at 561 Livonia Ave. in 1922. Eventually they expanded to eight stores within two blocks. They are credited with being one of the first discount sellers in the New York area. Part of their success was attributed to the fact that they were closed on Saturdays in observation of the Jewish Sabbath, which allowed them to legally open on Sundays when most retailers were closed.
They relocated their flagship store to Westbury, L.I., in 1964. The store went out of business in 2009.

The sign is comical in itself: stick figure hits his head on overhanging sign. Beware!
But this is a SIGN ABOUT THE SIGN. The logic behind its existence escapes me: without the sign there, there would be no need to warn about it.

Signing the route between Waterloo bus station and rail station and located under the SouthEastern route there has clearly been some artistic licence in the train depiction. Closest to reality would be on a day when First Great Western were running HSTs into Waterloo.
I don't know anything about this, or much about River Grove, but I'll take photos of redevelopment signs. Taken during a bike ride from Oak Park to Des Plaines
Sorry the background is all blurred out. It had names and telephone numbers on it....plus the sign with the warning is just so much more effective.
After 66 years in Denver Pagliacci closed it's doors.
The plan is to build another building, 5 stories. This is a very small building, with a small parking lot so I can't imagine something so big being built here. Maybe the house next-door is going too.
Added some tones and texture.
Discarded cardboard sign I found in an alley behind a 7-11 in West Hills, California.
Kind of interesting that it's been sort of painted over and it originally featured something on it about "benefits" (maybe at having lost them...?). It would seem to me it might have been easier to start over with a fresh piece of cardboard.
Well, I hope whoever made the sign got the help he (or she) needed.
A sign on a corner of Zhongshan Nan lu in Taipei. It combines characters and Zhuyin Fohao, which is why I took the pic.
