Anyone missing something?

Lorenzo — Mon, 07 May 2007 05:41:15 GMT

Lost type?

I found a letter of the alphabet yesterday, on the street near where i parked my car.

If you can identify it and tell me what street it was on, I can arrange for its return.

hi folks.

I just posted 3 ne photos in the album: frutilandia, el tarasco and accordions -- all from SF. The latter is in gilded letters so weathered, you have to look close to even see them. I love it!

Book Rec: American Signs

albertoforero — Tue, 15 Mar 2005 18:50:45 GMT

American Signs: Form and Meaning on Route 66
by Lisa Mahar

I picked up this book last night at Green Apple Books - for $8! I guess having obscure interests can pay off at times. I've just skimmed it, but it looks great - a detailed analysis of the evolving design of signage on Route 66 (Chicago->L.A.) We start off with rather simple displays, move into the neon era, the space age and associated Jetson stylings, and end on a more utilitarian note. Lots of pix and analysis of type, color and symbols. A descendant of Venturi's "Learning from Las Vegas" Highly recommended!

magnathree — Tue, 08 Mar 2005 20:44:14 GMT

i put a few vintage diner shots in the gallery
what goes together better than chrome, stainless steel and neon?
- the "rosies diner" here is the same rosies from the bounty paper towel ads of the 70s and 80s -
(they make a wicked milkshake)
