They are the small illuminated posters in cases which one sees in German towns. There are a lot of hits (and pictures) for the expression in google, but can anyone tell me the correct English expression, please? |

\"The return of billboard advertising
Let us talk about the G-value. A G-value of 500 guarantees a high frequency. Triangular tubes revolve around their longitudinal axis and backlights shine at right angles to the road – attracting everyone\'s attention. We are, of course, talking about ***city-light-boards*** also known as CLBs.
You might not have heard of them but you will definitely have seen them. Everyone recognizes the CLB-advertisements of girls posing for the Swedish clothing manufacturer spelt with only two letters. They lasciviously gaze out of the glass showcase and whisper the words: \"Bikini – 29,90\", unsettling many a motorist.\"
