Righteous Signage

Went for a stroll today after a delightful breakfast with home girl sally. I came across a bunch of street treats in the way of graffiti, signs, and righteous messages. Someone had been out their waving their flag and i have up most respect for that. No matter what the cause. If you feel strongly about something, write it on the walls, and stand by your opinion. its commendable.

Some of my discovers were sweet, some hilarious, others serious. All i ask is that you pay attention to the messages strangers post. as conditioned as we are to filter out the hundreds of messages we are bombarded with on a daily basis, some are more sincere than others. You never know where they will take you.

Honest Eds



Born in 1948 Honest Eds is a little slice of consumer history. This huge bargain warehouse supplies Canadians with every necessity. The main thing that brought Ed's to my attention is that they still to this day employ sign specialists to replicate the old school price/ sign typography from when the store first launched. I'm told there are still a couple of guys out back making hand made signs say in say out. We let so many small details like this become extinct every day, to to Honest Ed i raise a glass. Here is to tradition.
