By Steve Bennett | August 16, 2020
I think the most common printed words these days are :1 “No” 2 “Don’t” 3 “Must” and 4 “ Only.” Amazing how they words range from being taken as life-saving/pandemic-curbing public health directives to challenges of our right to do whatever we want whenever we want, no matter what the outcome for others. Here are two more collages of signage I’ve seen in the doors and windows of businesses during my wanderings around Cambridge, MA.
