I'm a really big fan of great hand lettering so it's probably no surprise that I kinda have this "thing" for hand painted wall signs, too. This is the side of a building we drove by recently and when I saw it I obviously fell in love! Even looking at these pictures now, I can't help but imagine what this wall looked like in its youth! There are so many fun characters, great phrases, and little quirks to appreciate. I think that guy with a toolbox + hat flying off might be the best. Although part of it has been spray painted over, you can still get a sense of the playfulness from that time period. I'd love to start photographing more of the neat walls I see around town. Maybe now that I have a new camera I will start doing just that! Are there any neat walls in your neck of the woods?
