The crown prince of East Boston

Whalehead King explains why that's the guy on the sign at Royal Roast Beef on Bennington Street:

... Is this crown prince/clown prince kissing his sandwich or sucking a thin slice or rare beef out from between the bun? Maybe a little bit of both. You'll try to do both too when you get one of these sandwiches between your mitts. ...

I have a good imagination, however

No pix to illustrate a story about a sign? Oh well, maybe someday they'll come up with a camera small enough for a single man to carry.

And you'll see the photo.

I don't post other people's photos unless I have their permission, either explicitly (they tell me directly it's OK) or implicitly (they've tagged a photo on Flickr with "universalhub"). In this case, I didn't have permission and I didn't ask because I was lazy/busy with vitally important affairs of state (your choice).

Not seeing the photo

There are two photos on that page, but neither of them is of a sign at Royal Roast Beef.

That is because I'm an idiot

No, there is no photo. For some reason, I thought this reply was to another post, which does have a linked photo. So my apologies for the waste of time.
