This RCA parody is funny too:

Those are great!
The first was a little obscure to an American, but I presume it’s a News of the World poster?
My favourites are the Demotivational posters.
It’s a British poster from WW2, it’s become very popular in recent years.
The series of, ah, more accurate book covers called Mightygodking versus his adolescent reading habits:
As far as I’m concerned, mightygodking totally deserves his name.
A few recent ones I stumbled across…
Back in the 1970s there was a locally sold poster of a “blueprint” of the Gateway Arch that showed the above-ground Arch was merely the corner of a giant coat hanger buried underground. I have searched all over the net trying to find a copy of it, but it must have gone out of print.
Fantastic! And hit right home…sharing this!
Exactly what I was hoping for, thanks. I’m just sorry I never read most of these.

I hung a “sacrifice, temple” poster from Despair, Inc. - Demotivators®, The World’s Best Demotivational Posters over the most heavily used copy machine at work (a ninth-grade only public school). The few other faculty members that got the joke agreed with it. Most people didn’t get it and it stayed there at least three years.

Ah, Keep Calm and Carry On, the dullest and least successful of the many Carry On… films.
The National Lampoon had a wonderful bit about “monumental disasters”. My favorite was about the St. Louis Space Needle. It was built too thin in the middle, and toppled over shortly after dedication, the rotating restaurant on top screwing it’s self into the mud. They hastily re-dubbed it the “Gateway Arch” and managed to cover the entire thing up.
