I find to warn off folks it is better to use a tougher font. These letters are a bit rounded and make it seem like Mr. Tim is actually a really nice guy. Maybe some calligraphy would have a tougher edge to it?

It’s all about the left hand side.

Check out the chicken on the right sitting in a pot getting cooked with a cold drink in its hand. Beautiful. Close up of the chicken after the jump. (more…)

I love discovering these old faded painted on signs. For some reason most of them are for storage places.

Awesome sign outside a barber shop. “Get It Right” is just an awesome slogan. When do you think this sign first went up – 50s, 60s, or 70s?

There’s something very appealing about seeing posters like these on garbage cans. I’ve never claimed to be normal.

I was scouting for “cool city signs” when I found this corner store. I think it’s awesome that the one thing they choose to highlight is ice cubes. I mean I like ice cubes and all, don’t get me wrong, but is that what needs to be celebrated. Well, I guess it’s cool that you can get them delivered…

I’m saddened that this restaurant is closed because it’s name is the best. I bet the food was delicious too.

Now I know this one wasn’t too expensive. But I’m also fairly certain that a lot of love was poured into this sign. While the paint is clearly dry, you can tell that the pride is still dripping wet.

The new Cooper Hardware’s sign at 3459 14th Street looks great. And who knew, they sell gardening stuff too. Let’s hope these awesome new signs inspire some other local establishments to drop their flimsy banner signs.
