I found a 1932 of on the cover of a brochure promoting that is filled with absolutely delightful illustrations (and, yes, some casual racism, which I'll leave for another post).

All by Herbert Writer, about whom I know nothing.

For people who loved yesterday's wonky , here's another great bit of curled vinyl, where the reason for the curling was probably the heat of the now-absent neon – ironically, at the now-gone Troy Neon Sign Company. Gotta say, Cooper Black is a choice for outlining neon.

Spotted this ten years ago, stuck to a payphone enclosure in one of my favorite cities, Troy, NY (The Collar City!). Whenever I see it, it gives me pleasure that someone shared a thought so lovely with the world.

Troy *is* beautiful.
You *are* beautiful.

Excited to see City Hall is preparing to launch the new municipal website and text/email notification services. This was a major initiative undertaken during my time as Communications Director; can’t wait to see final product! mailchi.mp/troyny/gurley-avenu

I am almost always on . I think municipalities cater far too much to the wants and needs of car owners. is making a mistake.
