Earverts

adverts printed unto ears

This is an improved version of the traditional sandwich board, where a person walks about as a mobile advert. Earverts are specifically designed to work in crowded places were people have to queue up or there is very free little space. They consist of a hat with two wings projecting from each side, like ears, upon which the message is inscribed, so that it is visible from both the front and the back. Electronic, illuminated or animated messages are also possible. The messages are intended to be read by the person or persons jammed immediately behind or in front of the earvert carrier, in a place of close confinement, like an elevator of moving stairs.

       pearverts - either advertisements on fruit, or sexual deviants with a fetish for petit-pois.
