Gyros signs - the hand-painted pictures found at hot dog stands, pizza parlors and Greek fast-food joints - are modern-day icons, literally: devotional images produced by anonymous artisans to bring the faithful into communion with the object of their fervor.
Gyros signs are among Chicago's best street art. They come in many shapes and sizes, but the best display a loving devotion to one of the city's most intense fast-food experiences.
