I wasn't expecting this to go live so soon but here's a little project I'm collaborating on with Jay Smith. The aim is to reprint the Coast Manual of Lettering and Designs (1907).

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/coastmanual/the-coast-manual-of-lettering-and-designs?ref=dp310a

The manual is one of the rarest sign painting books out there, and it was a series of lucky events that led to Jay having a copy in his possession: https://bl.ag/bookish-good-luck-at-mclellan-signs-in-nampa-idaho/#mclellan-signs-nampa-idaho.

I'll share more with mailing list subscribers soon, but please back it and boost 😊

Good news Friday... Kickstarter have classified the project to bring back the Coast Manual as a "project we love". (A good omen @glennf?) And it's 30% funded.

Find out more and back the book here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/coastmanual/the-coast-manual-of-lettering-and-designs?ref=dp310a

Hey, hi, hello!

mx here - geek, nerd, jack of many trades (master of none, obviously). Art and design, programming, hacking, reverse engineering, music.

Here mostly for the type and lettering, and to get first-hand fediverse experience.

Attached is a quick digital sketch to commemorate my overdue "some time lurker, first time poster" moment :)

After India and Belgium, we fly across the Atlantic for a look behind the scenes of the recent American Sign Museum expansion. 'Magic on Main Street' is the third BLAG Meet session (https://bl.ag/meet).

I got to see the new spaces last month, and the report is here: https://bl.ag/my-week-at-the-american-sign-museum/. Saturday's session will only scratch the surface, but will give you the opportunity to hear from those that brought the whole thing together.
