The A fell off of the Auburn Library in Auburn GA. The N looks a bit charred. As you drive by you can see the big bold sign proclaiming "uburn Library". (Like U-Haul, but for the book burning set)
I've heard of lending libraries and book burnings. It only makes sense that someone would combine the two.
I have photos. I'll post them later on some silly sign site.

This sign isn't a mistake, but there is a certain funeral home in Buffalo, New York. It goes by the name of "Imagone Funeral Home".

There was a sign on one of the roads in Israel that I saw once that earnestly told the drivers to stay on the left side of the orange strippers.
Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera.

My grandparents home in Athens, GA was one house down from the corner of Park Av. and Easy St. But now I live at the head of Poorhouse Creek, which runs through Dobbins Air Base in Smyrna, GA. I live about 1/4 mile from Dobbins. Not a shining omen of future glory. Posts: 6316 | Registered: Jun 2003

You know those signs along the freeway that say "gas food lodging"? I always wonder, when I see those, why they are advertising stomachs. But my all-time favorite is the one here locally that says "ATM in rear". Seems like that must hurt.

I love funny signs! I collect pictures of them.
The Water Store by my old house once had a sign up that read "Special - Spring Water or Distilled Seniors 15% off".
I also liked the Guinness sign in my favourite Irish pub that had the final 'g' covered with another sign so it read "Guinness - Like Drinking Your Favourite Son".
Then there was the store space for sale in my hometown with the sign "For Sale: 450 Square Foot Hairdresser or Office Space".
There's also a road in my hometown called "A Road". The A on the street sign is in quotation marks. Strangers look at you funny though when they ask directions and you tell them to "go down a road" and they'll get there.
