there are several sights along route 66 that you don't see any where else. I use to love the Burma Shave signs and the Stucky signs.
And here, per Wikipedia...
"In 1997, the American Safety Razor Company reintroduced the Burma-Shave brand, including a nostalgic shaving soap and brush kit. In fact, the original Burma-Shave was a brushless shaving cream, and Burma-Shave's own roadside signs frequently ridiculed "Grandpa's old-fashioned shaving brush."
Cool. Burma-shave sighs! Do they still make Burma-shave?
ReplyDeleteLinda: I don't know. But, I'm glad they left the signs up! There were quite a few of them. This is just one example.
