I want to read this book so much that I'm considering dropping my Spanish studies to learn French. Perhaps I'll do a flick through later to really show what a visual feast it is.

Chapeau Morgane! 🎩

PS. This is her second publication this year!

Thank you to @letterformarchive for hosting yesterday’s Salon event with Morgane Côme and yours truly.

Goodness gracious me, it's actually a real book, with an introductory essay from the wonderful Morgane Côme.

This one from @letterformarchive looks spectacular and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

PS. Some of this stuff appeared in a small segment in BLAG 02 (https://bl.ag/02) but this book is next level.

"Handmade signs will make people feel close and real, and at the same time, each artist will convey their own spirit, depending on the painting technique. I think that is the reason why many people still choose to use handmade billboards instead of electronic billboards."

Quote from Mr. Nguyen Xuan Bich, owner of the Ngoc Bich sign painting shop in Vietname, profiled here:
