    Smokers are a confined and restricted species today. Not so long ago it was perfectly normal to smoke just about anywhere. Nine years ago I failed to convince my neighbors on the night train from Paris to Madrid that smoking in their compartment was not such a brilliant idea for all sorts of reasons.

    Livorno must be sooooooo cosmopolitan. Yes? Again, you've done a fantastic job with the signs.

    Methinks Livorno has reached the status of a great international city...if these signs are any indication.

    I wonder if that tobacco shop sells real Cuban cigars?

    I quit smoking, but I like the smell of real tobacco.

    Those are some great signs, but the first one is really great.

    Livorno must have the most artistic signs around. I like your unusual and very colorful collection.

    Your city has the prettiest oval signs ever - gorgeous colors.

    Beautiful signs, but I imagine it's difficult for an Angentine pizzerie be better than an Italian pizzerie! No way! :)

    You really have creative graphic designers in Italy.
    They are all very nice signs.

    When did pizza become an Argentinian specialty? Huh... I thought all they had over there was the tango!

    Never tried food from Argentina or Cuba — I don't think we even have any here. Would love to try them though.

    A lovely oval trio.

    I never doubted that Livorno is a worldly city. Nice series.
