Hobo Signs Description

This is not a traditional font but rather a collection of symbols known as hobo signs. These symbols were historically used by itinerant workers to communicate important information about safety, resources, and other conditions in a given area.

The symbols are simple, often geometric, and designed to be quickly recognizable. They are typically drawn in a straightforward manner, with clear lines and shapes that can be easily replicated with basic tools.
