Hobo Signs

When I have rough days, the idea of dropping out of society, riding the rails cross country, eating can after can of beans, taking a swig of hooch from a paper bag, you know, real hobo type stuff, is sort of intriguing. In case you didn’t know, the classic American hobo of early this century communicated through a basic system of marks–a code through which they gave information and warnings to their fellow Knights of the Road.

Enjoy and happy friday!

Thanks eNos
