In today's Times newspaper they covered a new book by Dave Askwith and Alex Normanton called 'Signs of Life'. The pair of gents have been going around London putting up bogus signs which they printed matching fonts and graphics of original items. Normington a graphic artist created the signs and Askwith installed and photographed them. The above item is one of my favourite's along with a parking sign saying. '9am - 8pm Parking wardens will operate as thieving obstructive goblins of doom. Other than that they are human beings, like you or I only immeasurably less so'.
