Grand Auto Repair Corp., 916 Grand Street, Brooklyn, NY

This is the third time for "foreing" instead of "foreign."

Yong Stationery, 40-03 Queens Boulevard, Sunnyside, NY

Yet another two-fer - "jewellery" with an extra le (s/b "jewelry"), and "exchang" missing an e (s/b "exchange").

Sunnyside Laundromat, 42-24 43rd Avenue, Sunnyside, NY

This sign has "softner" instead of "softener." It reminds me of this one.

Sunnyside Meat Market, 43-10 43rd Street, Sunnyside, NY

We've seen this one ("sandwichs" instead of "sandwiches") twice before - here and here.

Maran's Auto Body, 47-19 69th Street, Queens, NY

I could understand it if they spelled it "technishians," but "technichians?!!!" The correct spelling is "technicians." (Please pardon the obstruction in front of the word "Factory.")

Beacon Tavern, 50-12 69th Street, Queens, NY

I will just point out that "sponsership" should have been spelled "sponsorship."

Tony Mulé & Son Meat Market, 66-26 Fresh Pond Road, Ridgewood, NY

I've heard of a frankfurter being called a "tube steak," but never a "frank steak." I believe that it should read "flank steak."

Baby Bug Furniture?, 67-11 Fresh Pond Road, Ridgewood, NY

Let the buyer beware: Don't complain if that "dresser" that you thought you purchased turns out to be a "dreeser."

Mark's Barber Shop & Beauty Salon, 68-68 Fresh Pond Road, Ridgewood, NY

Hairstyles get weirder and weirder as the years go by. So it wouldn't surprise me if "mashroom" is really correct. However, I think that it's supposed to be "mushroom."

The Original Sal's Pizza & Pasta, 60-48 Myrtle Avenue, Ridgewood, NY

Even though the adjective is meant to describe something from Naples, the word is spelled "Neapolitan," not "Napolitan."
