An adaptation of an iconic Southern California freeway sign graces the cover of the premiere issue of Miller-McCune magazine. We used the image for our cover story regarding a European trade model that could help solve the U.S. immigration problem.

An article in today's Los Angeles Times focuses on John Hood, the California Department of Transportation graphic artist who designed the immigrant "Caution" image.

Times writer Scott Gold notes that while sign was meant to serve as a warning that drivers could encounter people racing across Interstate 5 in San Diego County, it has "become one of the most iconic and enduring images associated with the nation's war over illegal immigration."

We felt the same way.
