A reader mentioned that they liked seedy strip bar signs so I thought I’d add the one above from upper Georgia Ave.
And in complete contrast is this sign from a building at Catholic University:

hellomarkers! has found some good ones and added them to the PoPville flickr pool. I thought I’d highlight a few of them here. A little explanation of the sign above:
“i found this beauty as a result of terrible traffic on the bw parkway. since i wasn’t in a rush, i decided to take route one back into the city. and was i ever glad. especially since i was able to pick up groceries for the week, in addition to getting this picture. laurel, md”

Following on the theme from yesterday ( Swedish Pastry Shop), I thought I’d continue with European Electronics.
I also liked this one, which I found in alley off 9th Street, NW:

I saw tons of these signs around Catholic University. A bit ironic? Ed. Note: Obviously these signs are not affiliated with Catholic University. I just thought it was funny they were surrounding the campus. On Flickr Mr. T in DC asks:
“I don’t think it’s legal to discriminate based on gender like that, is it?”
Any lawyers out there?

I found this sweet one (no pun intended) on upper Georgia Ave. What’s a Swedish pastry? I hope the folks from Wonderland/LGL are able to salvage this sign before it vanishes.

Those must be some damn fine hair cuts…

Thanks to a reader for sending:
“In the alley behind 1500 block of Varnum Street NW.
Luckily, I had my big mean doggy with me.”
Incidentally, can’t you get arrested for shooting someone on your property unless your life is in danger?

I’m always impressed by folks who go the extra effort for no personal gain. Someone found a bike and decided to post signs to find the owner. I think this is part of what makes a neighborhood/community great.
And finally a condo/apartment name that I like. Kinda reminds me of the simple brilliance of the Irving.

Lord knows what would happen if a working iron and humidifier fell into the wrong hands.

I almost crashed my car when I saw this sign on the 300 block of Kennedy Street, NW. Phenomenal. Has anyone eaten here?
