batch 2

i love that top one.
the S was... HUGE.
really.

all i kept thinking of was if it ever came off and fell on a bus, an entire group of people would be eliminated by one giant S.

more tk.

and thanks for the props, doug!
the food was AMAZING!
i can't wait to tell you guys about it...

and i'm sorry,

but this pic deserves its own post.

hotard?
really?

what, cum dumpster was taken?

hotard is a tour bus company in louisiana.

wtf?

as my girlfriend and i said, repeatedly after seeing this. well, it was more a lament that anything. we've been alive a combined 67 years on this planet. and in this time, we've been aware of the existance and usage of the two words that make up this linguistic wonder. but much to our chagrin, we never put the two together.

ho-tard.

fucking genius.

this is a first...

i'm posting something that's not a sign or anything like that.
i saw this type in an advertisement online.
i really, REALLY like it.

it's got this whole bent paper thing going.
and it looks like the same font that wired magazine is using in its front of the book section.

whom ever designed this, well done!

i'm BACK!

hey y'all, i'm back from new orleans. and while i go through the hundreds, yes... HUNDREDS of photos i took to separate the wheat from the chaff, let me just post a few that i've been meaning to get in there.

these are old, mostly brooklyn types. the sleds are a storefront window in manhattan. the building... who the fuck knows. all i know is that it's on atlantic ave in brooklyn, and that crest, it's on a garage door in windsor terrace. funny, right?

so yeah, check back soon for some southern deep fried cajun creole types.

aw, fuck...

it's been quite some time since my last post. i'd love to say that it's because i've been out and about in the world taking pics of type from here to dubai. but the fact of the matter is that i've been just plain lazy.

my bad.

but that's all going to change!

for the moment at least.

next week my girlfriend and i are going to new orleans. i am so excited about it, i really am! and i'm going to have my camera strapped to my dick so i don't miss a minute of the action.

er... yeah, didn't mean that porn style.
just that i'll be strapped and will shoot every piece of sweet sweet type that i come across.

so check back here in a couple of weeks, and i'll hopefully have posted some tasty tidbits of type.

in the mean time, i'm going to check my archives for SOMETHING to post, and hopefully get that up by the end of the weekend.


and to all of you that wrote in with concern about my lack of posts in '09, i thank you, and i appologize for my lazyness.

nah, just kidding.
no one ever wrote in.

fuckers.

stay tuned!
