Pawnmart – One of the Best Signs Ever., originally uploaded by onpaperwings.

“Driving on Interstate 44 from Springfield to St. Louis Missouri is pretty boring. But then you pass by this amazing building with the most fascinating type ever and it just makes your day.”

onpaperwings has some great sets, like this one of vernacular typography Polaroids, and this one of hand dryers(!). Probably they were both on BoingBoing a year ago, but I don’t care. If you haven’t seen them, check them out. (And Tom H. if you’re out there take note of this guy.)
