so i took a well deserved day off from the grind the other day, with a very special lady friend. and whilst we were strolling through our fair city, there were many neighborhoods and enclaves that we came across. from the diamond district, to the east village, and everything in between.
all sorts of socio-economic groups were represented on that walk, and you can see SOME of it in the signage and typography, but it's something that certainly needs a deeper look.
it's something i've always been curious about, money, typography, power, marketing, etc. it's evident on the city streets, in the magazines we read, everyone one cares to train their eye to tell the truth.
but, another day for that whole piece.
because for this post, it's about some cool fucking pics.
i love, love, LOVE this black letter R. i'm sorry that i couldn't get a better pic of it. as you can see, it's mirrored, and therefore was unbelievably difficult to shoot. but, you get the gist of it.
the old west neon looking letters are just so beautiful as well.
and anyone that's ever looked at this blog knows that i've got such a hard-on for neon.
yeah, take a look at these, and hopefully you'll enjoy.
all the best,
>n
