I'll save my Y name for when there's no other option.

I've been collecting some of the oddball letters, including Y, just in case.
Stratford Rd. -> N. Darby Coe Rd. (Union Co. Ohio)

I wonder if this guy had trouble getting dates in high school.

East Ave. => Tom Raper Way (Richmond IN):

[Eth]

I wonder if this guy had trouble getting dates in high school.

East Ave. => Tom Raper Way (Richmond IN):

This guy may not have done a whole lot better...

Tom Raper Way → Officer Robert J. Staab St (Surfside, FL)

Pope -> East (Thunder Bay, ON):

I've never seen white-on-black lane use signs like those before, but that may be because I've never driven in Canada. Is that a national standard, or just in Ontario?

[6a]

Ahhh, the commercials of my youth. "Tom Raper Richmond RV. Call 1-800-RAPER-RV"

Anyway, Ofc. Robert J. Staab St. -> Beechcroft Rd. (Columbus, Ohio)

[Henry]

Beechcroft Rd => Tremont Ave (The Bronx):

[paulthemapguy]

I wonder if this guy had trouble getting dates in high school.

Tom Raper Way (Richmond IN)

Driving on I-70 near the IN/OH state line, I used to laugh at the billboards advertising "Tom Raper RVs."  But now, so many more people are going to see his funny name because they decided to name a whole street after him!!
