| The modern sign on mainland Italy and Sicily: as sterile as a sign can be, but nevertheless most interesting for the more educated visitor. Caduta Massi is a famous actress in Martin Amis' novel Money. | Nice old sign with speed-suggesting stripes.

Visit Chile for an interesting evolutionary observation. |
