When we were in London and walked through Mayfair I observed something a bit strange. I thought it looked like there were Coco Chanel logos on the lamp posts. Then and there I thought it must mean something else and I didn't think about it anymore. Today, however, I googled Coco Chanel since I've been watching both the movies about her and I found something interesting. Apparantly the Duke of Westminster was in love with her and proposed but was turned down. But he had her logotype built in to all the lamp posts in his area Westminster. I think the story sounds a bit unlikely and it did come from Wikipedia, so you never know. But if it's true I think it's romantic in its own way and I'm glad I got a snapshot of one of the lamp posts as picture evidence!
