A Sign Painterly Slice Through Letterform Archive

The ephemerality and physicality of hand-painted signs means they rarely find their way into museums and archives. However, the collections at Letterform Archive are enriched by artifacts that represent the sign painting craft, including many that originated from the hands of sign painters past. These span eras and geographies, and a sampling of them is the focus of this Salon. Join three guests from the trade as they introduce some of their favorites, share how they have been inspired by them, and discuss their continued relevance for contemporary practitioners.
