This blog is a proud winner of the 2009 Spinetingler Award for special services to the industry and its blogkeeper a proud former guest on Wisconsin Public Radio's Here on Earth. In civilian life I'm a copy editor in Philadelphia. When not reading crime fiction, I like to read history. When doing neither, I like to travel. When doing none of the above, I like listening to music or playing it, the latter rarely and badly. Click here to find an independent bookstore near you.

Would be perfect in Michigan to have thigh-highs and a sub! Cool sign.
We're communicating telepathically about Italian, Peter! The current mini takes place in Italy. Is your area of Philly a melting pot, as are so many cities? Here, there are more of Italian descent than any other nationality, then Irish, then Polish, then Spanish and Afro-American. But I have a thing for interesting signs. Not that I have the time, but I bet someone probably has a blog dedicated to them! Have a great weekend! Petra
A cool sign, Meryl, and now with new, sharper contrast!
This sign is enough of a gift. A sub shop next door would be too much to hope for (and probably against zoning regulations). Thanks for the comment.
My area is traditionally heavily Italian, though it has been diversifying in recent years, with influxes of Cambodians, Mexicans and carpetbaggers like me.
This post was the latest in an occasional series on signs. You can find the set here.
Peter, I've considered casting those who are no longer with us and am still debating. Perhaps, I should poll? Mercello Mastrianni sprang to mind immediately. *laughing* Well, since very little acting is required on the part of the Woman...Thank you for your comment. p.s. btw, the winners of the last mini were Jessica Lange and Jake Gyllanhaal. Thank you for voting, Peter!
Thanks. I'd forgotten to check back to see who the winners were.
Jessica Lange played a number of those weary but strong rural women, so she's a good choice.
I may have to think about stealing your idea and asking readers here to cast movies based on their favorite crime novels.
