Onomatopoeia Watch
By the late, great Tibor Kalman.
From the website:
Onomatopoeia: The term used to describe words whose pronunciations suggest their meaning (eg, meow, buzz).
Here symbols suggest the sound of the numbers:
3 = tree (three)
5 = hand (5 fingers)
9 = cat (9 lives)
12 = Eggs (dozen/12)
£75.
