A good thirty or so years ago The Times ran a series of such photos, stopping only when they started to receive false ones, but they produced a book of the best.
With many it's not the name that was the amusing part but some unwitting detail. like a double-bend warning mounted on a pole that itself was double-bent (actually to clear a wall).
Another was of a sign-post at a T-junction somewhere in Ireland. Both arms, 180º apart, pointed to the same town and gave the same distance.
....
There is no public access to Weymouth Bus Station, and for years it had a sign next to the main doors, which I meant to photograph but had gone when I finally decided to do so.
With no evidence of it having been broken or part of any other plaque, it read simply: NO
