On my Goldfield & Hangtown RR, at Tonopah, there is the Bonebrake Manufracturing Co. At Hangtown, travelers can read the local paper, the Hangtown Daily Noose. On the Glendale, CA. RR Club, passers-by may note the sign at the entrance to the group behind a high fence, and admonition,
"Frosty Fanny Nudist Colony, Please do not feed the bares".

There is a real nudist camp near Ivor, VA called White Tail Park. The name is more appropriate at the start of the season!
If everybody is thinking alike, then nobody is really thinking.

This is "not" a joke, back in the 1950's we had a state rep here named "Flavel Butts" and you guessed it, his campaign sign read "Butts for Congress".
Apparently it worked as he was re-elected. I would make a further commentary on this but then it becomes "political" I guess, but you have imaginations of your own.

My GP is Dr. Paine, and there's a clipping floating around the web of an actual Dr. Frankenstein.
I usually don't like puns on signs. I have a very low tolerance for cornpone and slapstick, preferring dry and subtle humor. I'd prefer something that only one person out of a thousand will recognize.
There was a doctor who worked in a NYC Hospital whose name was Dr. Frank N. Stein. I guess his parents had a sense of humor and luckily, so did he.
I think taht Frank N. Stein was also the name of a fabricator company on Matt Chibbaro's Norwest Terminal Railroad.

There's an attorney in West Virginia named Edgar Allen Poe. Junior. Someone definitely has a good sense of humor there.

In Monterey, CA, there's a hair salon called "Curl Up and Dye". There's also one with the same name in Belmont, ME.
Don't remember the name of the company, but several years ago, I saw an electrician's truck with the slogan "Let Us Get Into Your Shorts".

As a young woman, my Mom worked for a company called Ketcham and Cheatham, and we had a dentist in town named Dr. Perlpuller. A toilet-seat manufacturer advertised his product as being "Tops for Bottoms." Once again, there's a prototype for everything.
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
Sounds better if you pronounce it in Spanish (appropriate too as the bank is in South America).
I can't remember the actual name of the company, but my former boss and I once spotted a septic pumper truck with the slogan, "You're Crap Is Our Bread 'n Butter." We laughed for hours!

I am naming a machine manufacturing company after the lumber edger I ran for years. Can't remember what company actually made it, but after a week of running it, I painted the makers names the same color as the machine and then in yellow painted "P. Sochiet Machine Co." I hated that dang thing!
