Vignettes from Jim and Emmy's years of travel


Germany

Rothenburg, Special Sign

How do we explicitly describe these intricate signs that are perpendicular to the store, hanging out over the sidewalk? Often they are of delicate design with exquisite detail, and may be several feet in either dimension. They are found throughout Germany, and may include the store name and perhaps an indication of the product. We were surprised that the German language did not include a special descriptive term for these beautiful store-front advertisements. We know we haven’t seen a more charming Golden Arches anywhere.
