the adorable devil's in the details.


E
very summer, a different iteration of this sign appears down the block from me, on adelphi and dekalb. it is always adorable, but it's also always hilarious. this person purports to be a 'detailer,' but without fail, most of the details of the sign are always off-kilter. (i have now filled my 'always' quotient for the day.) n.b.:

◦ the arbitrary mixing of capital and lower-case letters.
◦ the apostrophe placement in car's, implying that there is only one car which can be detailed. you better hope it's yours!
◦ the truncated phone number.

maybe the fact that i would critique this sign speaks more about me than it does the detailer, and it prolly does, but i pass this thing all the time, and i love it, so i had to blog about it.

like i said, it is adorable.
