That's sign by an hungarian street artist, Magyar Kétfarkú Kutya Párt (Hungarian Two-tailed Dog Faction :).
Some of his related works:

There are many of stuffs on his page, but most of them are hungarian-language related :)
The "mystery sign" at Prospect Mira Metro station is an icon for Greco-Roman Wrestling. This station is next to an olimpic complex built for Moscow '80 olympics, so they decorated the station with blasons for different olimpic sports.
the zebra crossing made my day. Why the design in the first place. Haha
From what I can see:
"sorry" on the bus happens in Victoria, Australia for buses not in use.
The first signage for bathroom comedy comes from Busaba, a Thai restaurant in London.
The Anti-Monkey Butt powder is a real product, aimed at motorcyclists to counter the unfortunate effects of sitting in the same position for long periods wearing tight leathers. The same company sell a range of products with risque names, such as visor-cleaner called "Foxitorff".
AND, the Harley Parking sign is commerically available from lots of suppliers. There are "retaliatiory" signs (Suzuki parking, Triumph parking etc...) too.
The "Enter Only/Do Not Enter" one is from a Target store. I noticed it on a door of the Target in my town and always meant to take a picture of it. I never use that door because I'm never quite sure what's expected of me!
Nice pics....what a collection..i really appreciate your work..
looking forward for some new...
The loop road sign is in Great Smoky Mountains National Park (Tennessee), on the road up to Clingman's Dome -- there's a short tunnel at one end of the loop.

Probably stating the obvious but the 'artifact' from 'District 9' is just an ordinary walk/don't walk sign that flashes alternately
Great collection! Hard to say which is my favorite. I have seen the Harley sign available for sale in the past. Thanks for sharing!
Funny that people actually know where this signage comes from!
hahaha "Servicio de Hosteleria Industrial de Terrassa" has to be my favorite. It translates to services of industrial hostel of Terrassa. It looks like no one at that business took the time to check with their English speaking customers as to what their acronym might imply.
