I wish I knew more about typography, thanks for taking us on a virtual tour, even if you didn't get to play in the sunshine. The changing materials used for the signage seems to be a sign of the times. And there were definitely some strange relationships between signage and buildings. I, too, adore the '2' in that 1929. ps. Love the reference to you know what in the title. I included 5 song references from that album in my comment, just for you. ha ha Love it!
