I took it a bit differently ... instead of leaving it just Pentax, which is recognizable as a camera brand,
they felt the need to whizz all over it with 'Ricoh' like they were marking this particular fire hydrant as theirs.
Pretty juvenile, considering how many recognizable brands are owned by so few parent companies, but don't make a big deal about it. For example:
And yes, it is confusing, 'cuz aren't them Ricoh boys makin' photocopiers and cash registers and fax-whatnots?
(BTW, had a new person working for me last year, they asked what a 'fax' was... heh. I resisted messing with them, but it was sooo tempting..)
