Asparagus-.jpg (9325 bytes) This ad caught my attention in Vienna.  I don't know what they are selling.
Bellezza-.jpg (8044 bytes) I found this one in Prato. I think this is selling some kind of beauty cure. 
Superal-.jpg (10519 bytes) Also from Prato, this is a clothing ad I think, not a fruit ad.
BigBra-.jpg (8534 bytes) On the window of a shop in Scuol, this is a see-through ad, like those you see wrapped around buses and covering the windows.
LegaNord-.jpg (12244 bytes) This one is from one of the Cinque Terre villages.  I think it deals with immigration, but I'm not sure which side of the issue it advocates.
