Description
A beautiful painted signboard with two males and the words "Bowling Cut" on the top. Ghanaians are very good in making art out of the ordinary and the colorful signs you see everywhere around Kumasi are case in point. Advertising everything from barbershops and beauty salons to chophouses and medicine men, the signs are both functional and decorative.
