Terry- your eccentric eclectic collector of signs seems to use the "Midnight auto supply" technique.
All those government signs were probably purloined without permission of the government .

But Charlie, they're paid for by taxpayers, right? And we're taxpayers, right? So, therefore, we cannot purloin what we own, amiright?

I agree with the above-stated philosophy.
Now find a policeman running a radar trap and- in full view of the officer- remove a highway sign and put it into your vehicle.
Bail probably won't be more than $1000. And good luck at your trial .
Now- here are two more signs that amused me. Taken at different locations, but they seem to work together.

More and more enjoyable stuff.
Here are five more that have amused me.
The first was on a street corner in Beijing, China.
The others in the good old USA.
And a mystery sign (beer advert.) in Laos, hand painted, seeming to indicate something about drinking pink beer, becoming a transvestite, and then having a threesome:
Some Ominous signs that I encounter on an almost daily basis....due to the sizes of these signs, context is your imagination.
It's interesting that after nine years of working in a refinery, I never really notice these signs until I went looking for them. Sure, we know the drills if something happens, but it's amazing how these things just sort of blend into the daily landscape....
