Children's crossing in Azerbaijan

Sometimes organizing new finds for the collection can lead to a snakepit. But then I took a look at a map and - also knowing that although about one million people with polish ancestry are living in Illinois still Poland doesn't claim the state. - decided to put Karabakh signs under the Azerbaijan header. At least for the time being.

The drawing of this sign is very close to a find from Giumri (Armenia). The gaps between the bodyparts are a bit more closed though. And the girl (the girl? How can we possibly know it's a girl? Read more about the dangers of iconization.) doesn't hit the red borderline with her head. But it's still far from pretty.
