I see this stuff everywhere, but never with an ampersand.

I really like that Kevin has tagged this: Does anyone want to make a crappy mumblecore movie and use this bro’s handwriting in the credits?

A fine specimen.

Pet Cemetery
Close-up.

This weekend I took a little trip to the pet cemetery in the Presidio. There were plenty of ampersands along with other fine examples of home-grown typography.

You can find more info here or you can just view my gallery here.

They were so angry, they wrote their ampersand backwards. Via SFist.
