Photo Quiz: Flatbush Speaks


Flatbush Speaks, originally uploaded by Dope on the Slope.

View of the talking signs looking down Flatbush toward Bergen Street from the intersection with 6th Avenue.

I've been trying to capture this scene in different lighting ever since I took this earlier snapshot.

Too bad the owner of "WINE LIQUOR LOTTO" didn't turn on the sign.

Here's the quiz part (sort of). How many different distinct signs can be read?

I honestly don't know the answer.

@ Frank.

Ha!

Actually "read"? As in, interpreted or discerned? Tough to say, since some are canopies. (And of course anyone who ignores the walk sign goes to the back of the class.)

Oddly, this reminds me of an old joke... The prof in the Sex Ed class starts the lecture saying, "There are 12 basic positions for sex," voice in the back says "78." Prof, miffed, says, "The 12 basic positions..." "78" comes from the back of the lecture hall. Still miffed, prof decides to barrel through, "The first of the 12 positions is man on the top of the woman," and the voice goes "79!"

I count 22

That's what I counted. Must be right.
