#typeversustime

[lettersofnewyork]

There was a brutalist almost military feel to these relief stenciled street numbers in the village. When I took this in August 2016 the former occupant, French restaurant Di Fiore Marquet, had already closed for good and new owners/tenants, farm to table restaurant Villanelle, didn’t keep this little delight when they reconstructed the ramp it was on. Which I was sad to see but I’m sure there were accessibility or aesthetic consistency reasons. I just hope it’s not landfill now 😳 #typewithtexture #typeversustime #disappearingnewyork #oldtype #urbantypography #stonework #newyorkstreet #nyctype #nyctypography #nycgram #igersnyc #oldnewyork #industrialbeauty #everything_signage #streetsign #getitfromthestreet #streetgraphics #storefront #typism #typedaily #urbanfont #urbantype #differenType #typographyinthewild #stencil #stenciltype #stenciltypeface #fantasticfacades #jj_texttypographical #jj_texture_white (at Greenwich Village) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrLNNLRhBBB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1j7b1h9e5jz5d

Fabric store in Paramus New Jersey. I pulled over for this. The owner came out all puzzled and slightly confrontational while I was taking these! Then wandered off even more confused when I explained my love of lettering. I really wish I'd engaged him in conversation about the history of his store and its signage. Missed opportunity. ... . . . . . . . #allcaps #vintagetype #detailsofdecay #letteringlover #handlettering #handletteredtype #uppercase nicebitoftype #typewithtexture #typedesign #typeversustime #typecollect #typeverywhere #oldtype #vernaculartypography #handpaintedsignage #handpaintedsign #signcollection #oldsigns #justsigns #igsigns #classicsign #storefront #brushlettering #brushwork #primepeel #handstyles #shopsign #1shot #handdrawn #letteringartist #graphicarts #signwork #windowsign #madebyhand #handmadesign (at Bergen, New Jersey)

Franklin Street, Williamsburg/Greenpoint Brooklyn. I did some research and it looks like the fence co ceased trading in 1999, while the sign co is still in business out in Tawonga NY. I'm guessing this sign & fence might date from the 70s or 80s (?) ... . . . . . . . #handpaintedtype #vintagetype #detailsofdecay #letteringco #uppercase #historicaltype #typewithtexture #typevstime #typeversustime #oldtype #typosign #urbantypography #partnersingrime #filth42 #industrialbeauty #signofgrime #iliveforgrit #rustoration #insegna #insegne #retrosigns #everything_signage #ghostsign #fadedtype #tipografiaurbana #inthestreets #brooklyntype #williamsburg #greenpoint #thedesigntip #rusticsign #showusyourtype #typism #jj_texture #jj_typeiseverywhere #rustlord_typography #typehunting #streettype (at Franklin Street, Greenpoint Bk)
