I have just come here from Cathy´s blog - guess whom I met there - and my mail tell me you have just visited me LOL
Great old sign. Unfortunately most of the old shop & restaurant signs have disappeared from Copenhagen. Too many people seem to prefer modern neon signs & do not realize how wonderful these old ones are.
Makes me long for Kafee und Kuchen and the Cat Cafe! Then maybe buy some funny blue art at the shop next door.
By the way -- the picture on your header is so beautiful -- what town is that? It looks like the river walk in San Antonio, but I don't recall so many plants being there.
My wife has mentioned Bremen many times. It's the site of some kind of play or something that's only put on every few years. I suppose we'll visit one day.

Dorte: I love the signs in the older parts of the older places in Europe. We rarely see such great signs in the United States.
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine the townb surrounding these signs as well.
ReplyDeleteP.S.
I gave you an award on my blog.

ReplyDeleteIf that poor little mouse only knew what was surrounding it! Great picture, as usual.
ReplyDeleteLove those!
ReplyDeleteHi Beth,
ReplyDeleteI love that photo, it's so colorful!! Thanks for stopping by my place. Have a great day!!

I'd stop in to any one of these, and I'm not even a big cat fancier!
ReplyDeleteNice shot!
Why aren't there lovely signs like that here, instead of the ugly awnings staring at me from across the street?
ReplyDeleteVery cool!
ReplyDeleteMy DH brought back some interesting pictures of signs from his summer abroad, so I can definitely understand there are even more out there. :)
ReplyDeleteToday is my first effort at participating in Wordless Wednesday. http://cherryblossommj.blogspot.com/2009/03/wordless-wednesday.html
These are two great whimisical signs. It makes me want to stop in for a drink :)
ReplyDeleteGreat photo, I love the way the colours in the signs really stands out against the black and white background.
ReplyDeleteWoW! So many characters!
ReplyDeleteNice shot!

I am in love with the signs and the scrolling brackets that they hang from. There is nothing like that here. This makes me long to travel.
ReplyDeleteCat lovers favorite hang-out place...cool! The other sigh is very interesting too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my site earlier!

ReplyDeleteWonderful signs. Old world signs are so much more interesting than their modern counterparts.
ReplyDeleteAhhh...now that's just cool! Happy WW!
ReplyDeleteSehr gut. Those old signs are very cool.
ReplyDeleteThat is one brave mouse on teh sign. And one brave restaurant owner to advertise his place with a mouse!
ReplyDeleteCool signs! Thanks for visiting my photo blog. Have a wonderful Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteI love these signs. Somehow I have to visit Europe.
ReplyDeleteVery nice shot!
