Burma-Shave (1939)
The first time I saw the iconic Burma-Shave signs was at my favorite bizarre tourist attraction in Wisconsin, The House on the Rock.
Wikipedia has a pretty good description of the signs:
"Burma-Shave was an American brand of brushless shaving cream, famous for its advertising gimmick of posting humorous rhyming poems on small sequential highway roadside signs."
I wanted to turn these classic signs into a desk accessory/decoration, not wanting to stifle anyone's creativity I've made it so you can enter your own five line rhyming poem (or pick a classic Burma-Shave poem from the end of this post!) to make your own desktop signs.
This can be printed with using a dual extruder printer or a single extruder printer with a filament swap. All files will be exported via Customizer at once.
