    This is photoshopped. The writing is a font called Mistral.

      I don’t know. It would be a pretty good Photoshop, if it is. The blurring around the font is normal JPG artefact, which should, in fact, be present more around more ‘detailed’ parts of the photo (so offhand, it doesn’t seem to be ‘an edit of an edit’). Also the perspective on the board seems right to me (ie the text is distorted adequately – which can be quite tricky).

      I can’t really see any blatant giveaway – it could be a sign that was printed by the hunter. With the right tools it’s certainly easier to print it than it is to Photoshop it. But perhaps that’s a project for another day.

      Most certainly it is. I’ve never seen a sign of this kind that boasted proper type. Most usually these are handwritten and are quite shoddy at that- still it’s a good one – prosit to whoever

    It’s obvious it’s Photoshopped – the font is cursive and all letters are the same exactly, just the check the letter ‘s’.

    …although I must say it’s pretty funny!

    Photoshopped but had a good laugh.
