Street signs, billboards and the like
posted in Bizarre, Humor, Nerdstuff, Oddities, Photography by Rico Ferrari |Long ago most of Brazilian business chose their names from French or Italian if they wanted to look cool. So there was a bunch of “boulevards, coiffeurs, belvedere”, etc. From the 50’s onwards, Brazilians started to use English, instead. This is a collection of pics send to Kibeloco from people in all country’s corners. Brazilians trying to write English:
“Over Night”.
“Giga Byte”.
Maybe “Ladies First” (who knows what they really meant).
“Dinner Room”.
“Night Club”?
“Flash Dance”.
“Do not throw objects on the toilet.”
“Five Stars Mocoto” (Mocoto it’s a weird -terrible - dish made of oxen bone marrow).
“King Size”.
“Toilet”.
