Love Letters, Typography

Love Letters | Tabu Candy + Alberta Place + Now Renting

This week’s Love Letters are from places familiar. Feel free to collaborate! Email your pics or scans to vikki@veekee.ca, with the subject ‘Love Letters’.

Tabu - Italian liquorice candy from the Italian Centre. I love that script writing below the logo. Can anyone translate it?

Alberta Place - a downtown hotel that obviously (gloriously!) hasn’t updated its logo since the seventies. I walk past it almost every day, and gawk at the buxom nature of these letters.


Now Renting -
a handpainted sign in a sea of black and orange ‘For Rent’ signs. I would love to learn how to paint signs the old-school way. Maybe there’s a book at the library…
