Ah! I'm 50 and I remember Burma Shave signs. We've found a sharp cutoff age indicator...
(BTW Are they Myamar Shave signs now?)

What part of the country did you grow up in?
Burma Shave signs were not too prevalent in the South. We tended to have "SEE ROCK CITY" signs instead. :-D

LOL on the Myanmar.
Burma-shave was bought out by Phillip Morris some time in the 50s. According to this website, the signs came down in 1963, so I SHOULD have seen them. Maybe they came down earlier in the South.
