THE SIGNTIST

This is impossibly cool– Secret Fun Blog reader Kevin Anetsberger has lovingly translated some vintage signage that has previously appeared on this blog into its pure, beautiful, vectorized form.

The pizza-approving gentlemen seen above came from a photo from my trip to Pizza Parlour in Fort Smith, Arkansas....


Kevin also adapted their amazing logo...



Wow, it's such a joy to see those letters dance on the screen.

Additionaly, he immortalized the type from this doomed sign for a local strip mall...



Ahhhhhh, just the sight of those pristine characters takes me to design-geek nirvana. His timing couldn't be better because the original sign was sadly replaced with a heinous revision just this month. But thanks to Kevin it shall be preserved for generations of web surfers.

Mr. Anetsberger also serves the world by offering vintage record albums on his blog and retouching album artwork for Kiddie Records Weekly.

Thanks Kevin for restoring these obscure masterworks of typhography to their full glory!
