Health and safety posters, Soviet style
In Soviet Russia, train catches YOU
Stop, hammertime
Them Russians are/were very good at propaganda posters, I have to say.
A failure of advertising
Seen in today's "Eureka" science supplement, in The Times.
A BMW advert, proudly proclaiming "drinks like a camel"; intended to describe good/low fuel consumption
...and directly over the page from this double-page spread; an article which explains that camels actually drink quite a lot...
Whoops.
This post was going to be entitled "truth in advertising", but the claimed 50mpg is actually quite good.
Now, before any beemer-haters start coming out of the woodwork, here is das FNS-wagen relaxing outside in the snow. It's actually very good on fuel 
Just sayin’
