 >Before the Interstates, in the 1930's and 1940's, when everyone drove old 
2-lane roads, Burma Shave signs would be posted all over the countryside in 
farmers' fields. They were small red signs with white letters. Five signs, 
about 100 feet apart, each containing 1 line of a 4 line couplet... and the 
obligatory 5th sign advertising Burma Shave, a popular shaving cream. 
Listed below for your amusement are actual examples of the advertisements 
from a bygone era:
