In the Mirror

Well, SOMEONE entered! I see a red vehicle. It didn't get there by osmosis.

The Ghost of Gimbels

 

I love spotting ghost signs. This old Gimbels sign is in Manhattan. 

I Before E

 

EXCEPT AFTER C! Sheesh! I can understand the average layperson with spelling or grammatical mistakes. But what I can't understand is someone with a sign business, nor the business paying for said signs, with these kinds of errors! If it were my business receiving the sign, I would have refused it and made them reprint it right. Yeah, I'm picky like that.

Reefs for Sale

 

Reefs for sale.

Um.

Okay.

Do you have any coral reefs?

I always wanted a coral reef.

No Fish Scraps

 

I don't care if you have Seven Fishes. No fish scraps here!

Body Parts

 

Eep. Is giving up a leg worth it for a bikini sale?

Used Parts

 

We probably shouldn't ask what kind of used parts. It is New Jersey, after all.

Coolness From the Past

 

They don't make building signs like they used to.

I miss that.

Danger, Will Robinson!

 

I don't think I'd want to enter any of the apartments in that building anyway, thank you very much. But I do appreciate the Spanish lesson as it may be.

Stop! Don't Stop! Don't Stand!

 

You can read the sign. Nothing to see here. Move along.

NOW. But, the other sign says STOP! I'm SO confused! Can I SIT?

Trains to Hell

 

No, I didn't do the graffiti. But, there ya go.

Nipper, His Master's Voice

 

I was thrilled to see Nipper the Dog still sits atop the building in Albany, NY. I was up there for my high school reunion. My father used to deliberately drive by Nipper when I was a child. I had to check it out to make sure he's still there! And, he is!

Another Hole in the Wall

 

Was the 24 hour surveillance working when a car "pitched in" and crashed through?

Park Liquors ... or not

 

I love old neon signs for defunct businesses long gone. There is no liquor store there. Plainfield, NJ.

Sex Street

 

Heh. She said "Sex" Street. Truth in photography -- it's actually Essex Street (LES, Manhattan) at night with the flash on. How juvenile of me! Heh. Sex Street. 

Videoland con Tylenol

 

Nighttime on the Lower East Side.

In Stereo Now

 

Stereo sign, stereo lamps. All is copacetic.

Unnecessary Noise Prohibited

 

Yes! Yes! A sign for ME!

How Soprano is This?

 

Fitting, don'tcha think?

I Need a Camcoroder

 

Now a defunct long gone business. Or, should I say business? Or buisness?
