I rememberseeing Burma Shave signs as my dad was driving on roads.
How many poems are there in your Burma Shave file?

I am guessing the company had more than 366 poems on their signs.
Thanks.

Ed,

I rememberseeing Burma Shave signs as my dad was driving on
roads. How many poems are there in your Burma Shave file?

Well, just one for each day of the year.

I am guessing the company had more than 366 poems on their
signs. Thanks.

There are likely more. I got many of the items for the files from
various websites.

You can find more info on Burma Shave on Wikipedia.

Daryl, A long time ago I read the Burma Shave page on
Wikipedia. I am probably have it saved on my desktop box.
Will look to see if its there when I am in that room later.

At one time, Pentrex (whose specialty is railroad related DVD's
(they did VHS at one time, but no more), had a video on The Signs
And Rhymes Of Burma Shave. It was very interesting.

Daryl,
I finally found My ROUNDTUIT and looked on the desktop box at the Burna-Shave article on Wikipedia that I saved in 2017.

On the second page in the EXAMPLES section it says "600 or so" signs.
Also mentions a book "The Verse by the Side of the Road" by Frank Rowsome and Carl Rose. Stephen Greene Press , OCLC 656940 .

They are now in museums, or collectors garages.
