For those who never saw any of the Burma Shave signs,

Here is a quick lesson in our history of the 19 4 0's and ' 5 0's. 
Before there were interstates, when everyone drove the old 2 lane roads, 
Burma Shave signs would be posted all over the countryside in farmers' fields. 
They were small red signs with white letters. 
Five signs, about 100 feet apart, each contain 1 line of a 4 line couplet..... 
And the obligatory 5th sign advertising Burma Shave, a popular shaving cream.

DON'T STICK YOUR ELBOW 
OUT SO FAR
IT MAY GO HOME
IN ANOTHER CAR.
