Show and Tell - Children Crossing

Hello, I haven't done a Show and Tell for a while, but I thought I'd show you this sign that I saw when I was on holiday (vacation) in Italy. It amused me to see that the sign which I assume is telling us to take care because there might be children around shows a man in a trilby hat holding the hand of a little girl, wouldn't happen here would it?

  2. The sign does look very 'dated'. Men no longer dress that way and he does look like a 'dangerous stranger'. Challenging to express the message visually without words. Interesting...
