Capturing Sweet City Signs
02 July 2009 4:00 PM | By Prince Of Petworth in signs
A reader mentioned that they liked seedy strip bar signs so I thought I’d add the one above from upper Georgia Ave.
And in complete contrast is this sign from a building at Catholic University:

Is the reader who likes seedy strip bar signs the same guy who posted signs around Catholic U looking for females for a car wash?

Foxy was the shit back in the days….no literaly..haa haaaa….
I remember when they launched a campaine to be a top end strip club….
It was a massive FAIL.
I remember seeing a sign that said Dancers and free buffet……
I was too scared to ask what they was serving
heard mostly hotdogs…

What would be great is a picture of the signage at Skylark Lounge on New York Ave. I bet most people don’t even know that that dirty, green building with a drive thru even is. It’s a strip club. They have this little clear sign with stick on letters at their entryway. It’s a classic of DC attitude.
