It's one of the more extreme misuses of type squishing I've seen in a while. But I have to admit, it does read a little like poetry.
Do any of these adaptations improve on the original? The original has an aggressive charm to it, but the information is not a quick read.
But as I rework the design to get to something more functional, it starts to look like any other sign. Can I get any of the original charm back by using the original fonts? Maybe.
In the end I have to admit -- I would not take a picture of this sign.
