Re: Burma Shave Signs
When you're near, you are my master.
When you're far, I'm still your slave. Just seeing you makes my heart beat faster. I'll always adore you. BURMA SHAVE

Re: Burma Shave Signs
One part of the great nostalgia of our Route 66 trip was to see the Burma Shave signs still maintained on that route west of Seligman, AZ. Took me back to my childhood when they were everywhere.
