This billboard was situated on Elizabeth Street in Sydney, Australia, advertising Kiwi Shoe Polish, with an image of an unidentified man who coincidentally, bore a strong resemblance to the current president of the United States. Evidently, FDR had not authorized use of his likeness. I can’t imagine that a billboard in the US of an Australia Prime Minister would help sales of shoe polish over here. In fact, I doubt any of us could name one Australian Prime Minister.

Ah, interesting-)

So I should have said, “Look at your shoes, pheasants”?

Good one. I was once in a biz meet in Korea and the translator for the Korean big boss explained one of his favorite hobbies was “peasant hunting.” At the time we thought that was an accurate translation.
