Abstract
A sign comprises a base layer and a transparent or translucent upper sheet over the base layer. An icon or indicia of the sign is associated with the base layer or is printed on the upper sheet. The upper sheet and base layer are releasably adhered together under pressure applied on the upper sheet which causes the icon or indicia to be displayed. When the upper sheet is released from the base layer the icon or indicia is erased. In another embodiment the icon or indicia is displayed when the upper sheet is released from the base layer, and is erased when the upper sheet is pressed to adhere to the base layer.
