Peeling Ampersand
Slowly peeling.
Slowly peeling.
At a construction site.
Spotted this weekend in San Francisco.
My friend Maggie found this at the antique market in Alamo Square.
Nice and simple red on yellow ampersands. Outside a small store/deli on Nob Hill.

So I was screwing around in Bio today, with the USB microscopes. A handout we’d been given had a nice large ampersand in the title (comic sans, I believe, but that’s not the point). I put the two together, and have uploaded some shots of ampersands under a microscope, at 10x magnification, to the interwebs.
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.
