RoadTrip America's CAUTION: FUNNY SIGNS AHEAD is
out of print.
Reflecting
over a decade's worth of collecting actual mixed-up
marquees, billboard blunders and signs of all types
seen along city streets and country roads, major freeways
and back roads,
CAUTION: FUNNY SIGNS AHEAD
features images
captured by 95 photographers from all over the United
States, Canada, and beyond. Check out the list
of contributors!

What
others are saying:
Fun signs from the side of the
road, shop fronts and those wonderfully-American boards
where they can change the message every day. From the rude
(Beaver Liquor Inc.), through unthinking juxtapositions
(Cemetery Lane / Dead End) to the plain unfathomable (Cat
Crap), this is a great read and an even better gift.

"There are some street signs
that cause double takes, restaurant names that will give
you pause, and an amazing number of signs that include the
word "dump" in an incongruous manner. If yor're
looking for a gift for someone who loves to laugh, you've
found it."
—Tami Cowden, author of
Cruising
for Love
"Caution: Funny Signs
Ahead is an extensive collection of bizarre, humorous,
and otherwise visually-arresting signs rounded up for your
enjoyment. This roadie's personal favorites include 'No
Smoking on Campus Prohibited' and 'Brakeless Trucks Use
Freeway'"

"If
you like roadside double entendres…You'll definitely
enjoy Caution: Funny Signs Ahead. My favorite is
the motel in South Dakota that proudly advertises, "Imaginary
Friends Stay Free."

loved National Lampoon's True Facts books that featured
