Day of the Dead at the video store
Shari suggested I post this in reference to my previous post about the Day of the Dead. This flyer just goes to show again how important this occasion is in Mexican culture. It’s a video rental store flyer (I blurred out the videos, because they’re not important). I circled the items I wanted you to notice:
- #1, a candy skull (traditional candy)
- #2, an orange marigold (the flower of the dead apparently)
- #3, the Catrina (a skeleton in fancy ladies’ clothes), with the words Celebremos nuestras Tradiciones – meaning, let’s celebrate our traditions.
There was more on the other side, but you get the idea. The skull in the black box isn’t exactly related – it just says "Piracy: Serious crime".
