This shop on the left showing Weird Things has been in the location on Bathurst St for a couple of years and they do have weird things - some antiques, some 'antiques' they make, and some folk art pieces. The Normal Things sign on the derelict building next door just appeared in the last couple of weeks - I love it! The buildings are in a developer limbo since someone wants to tear them down and build a structure that isn't allowed in the zoning bylaws.

This is a great photo. Love those signs.
Shouldn't the signs be switched?
Hysterical!
Normal things... cool !
I wonder which things they are...?
just darn cute!
Wonderful signs. Someone has a great sense of humor, and I'm glad you found these.
How funny! I'm glad you spotted this. The new sign makes a perfect counterbalance.
Great capture Pat!
Sharon from Phoenix sent me to look at this photo, which is AWESOME. I love it. :)
Haha! Love the humour Pat :) and I wouldn't mind having a wee look at the weird things also :)
I like it. It could lead to even more shops - Everyday Things, Funny Things, Dumb Things, Junky Things, etc.
Well caught, you made me laugh! I obviously vote for weird things...
Quite a contrast!
Now this is cool! Bravo on behalf of the normal sign person!
Hmm. Which door should I choose . . . :-)
Hilarious!
Great take and unusual sign name.
Instead of looking after old things and maintaining the beauty of what already exists, it is indeed normal to tear down and erect bigger things.
I am laughing out loud for reals! Hilarious retaliation from the "normal things" building. :)
Lol!!
Duh, restore them, they're wonderful!
Weird and normal. Just like life. :)
Now that's cool. Tom The Backroads Traveller
their sign Weird Things would certainly entice me to walk into their store. I normally hate to see older buildings torn down, but the boarded-up building looks like it's on its last legs.
Love the sense of humor of people there.
My SIGNS, SIGNS
Ha! That's great!
I love it too, Pat!

Wonderful shot! Did you go in?
What a fun pairing of signs. I like how the 'normal' looks weathered and broken.
I'm smiling!
Someone has a nice sense of humour
Lovely and interesting picture, the colours are great..
Looks like a professionally done sign. Hmm.
What a great sense of humor someone has!
That is funny, but the structures are really struggling. It will be interesting to see what happens to them.
That's so funny Pat! Someone has a great sense of humor and you found a perfect picture for Signs. It will be interesting to see what happens.
