Chinatown, San Francisco, Calif The last three posts were all from Frank Synopsis. He has a bunch of other ampersands in his photostream.
Oakland, Calif.
Jennifer found this interesting specimen in Redwood City. This example is really more like a clef than an ampersand, but I like that you can get birds and flowers all in one place. The sign is a bit faded, but the typography is interesting in it’s own way. Here is another example of a clef.
Closed down now due to the internet. Anyways, pretty cool lettering. It was removed about a week after I took this photo.

From the excellent Cheeta Fight.
The ampersand gave me the excuse to post Jeff Canham’s work. Lots of hand lettering, signage, and Tijuana Brass inspired stuff.
We heart it.
You always see ______ & sons, but hardly ever _______ & daughters. Nice to see it on this lovely sign. Russ & Daughters, NYC sent in by Zachary.
