funny signs, part 4

Ok, these aren't really signs. There more miscellaneous "curiosities," but you get the idea... They're funny.


Meet Henry, the Numatic vacuum. He has a pink partner in cleaning. She gets eyelashes to make her more feminine and is named Hetty.


On further investigation, Henry also comes in green, red, and blue. James, Charles, and George are also part of the family. Click on this link for a closer look


Peruvians with an identity crisis. They appear to be wearing pseudo-Great Plains outfits while playing Peruvian music and are selling dream-catchers next to their Peruvian CDs. Ok, really, what was the problem with exploiting their own Incan heritage?


A York traffic jam. The two cars in the foreground are parked. The truck is at least halfway onto the narrow sidewalk.


More driving obstacles. I've never seen trees planted IN the street. I guess there's a possibility the trees were there first. There are dashed lines indicating parking areas between them.


Well it IS the corner of Cowgate silly (aka Cow Street)!


Although this might give you the idea that England is overly politically correct...


Think again. This seems to be part of a popular collectible series.
