Title: Visual Sampler of Historic Signage
Review: Perfect for set designers and graphic designers who want to evoke a particular historic age from 1800 to 1940. Hundreds of colour photographs that capture not only the details of the letterforms but the texture of the material used to make the signs. With the painted signs, the flaking, fading, peeling and brushstrokes can bee seen. The book has been a source of ideas for redrawing letters to give that logotype just the right feeling and I have been encouraged to photograph any historic signs that I come across.
