Hobo Logo, National Hobo Convention
The Britt hobo logo was first used in the 1900 convention announcements and advertising. The figure used in the ad has been changed very little over the years and is now found around town on school letterheads, the city's watertower, on the highway welcome sign, as well as on restaurant menus.

Want Wi-Fi? Learn the secret code
Seventy years ago, during the Great Depression in the United States, hobos drew signs to indicate to each other where they could get a meal.
