A threshold mosaic that once belonged to Dunn & Co, a chain of outfitters that boasted over three hundred stores at its peak. Founded by George Arthur Dunn at the turn of the century, Dunn & Co became a well known high street name selling affordable hats and menswear. However by the beginning of the nineties their luck had began to run out; faced with competition from the likes of Next and changes in fashion that didn't involve hats the business began to falter, before finally being wound up in 1996. Thankfully many traces of their distinctive shopfronts remain, including this mosaic with it's tasty letterspacing and flat topped ampersand. I'll take my hat off to that! . . . #type #typography #typespotting #typeinthecity #oldtype #oldsigns #urbantype #urbantypography #urbantyping #urbanlettering #foundtype #foundtypography  #streettypography #streetsigns #mosaic #mosaics #threshold #mosaicfloor #ihavethisthingwithfloors #floors #doorwaymosaic #lettering #signs #signage #signhunting #london #ghostsign #ghostsigns #ghostsignsuk #thestrand

Little Crown Court tailors ghost sign in Soho, London. This is a tricky sign to photograph due to its height and the fact that it's hidden just inside a narrow alley. However it's well worth it as the level of detail is outstanding, especially the painted figure and the words 'Expert Tailor' written vertically around one of the corner windows. Swipe to see a few close ups. . . . #typespotting #typeinthecity #oldtype #oldsigns #urbantype #urbantypography #urbantyping #urbanlettering #foundtype #foundtypography  #streettypography #streettype #streetsigns #london #ghostsign #letters #lettering #signs #signage #signhunting #ghostsigns #surreyhistory #ghostsignsuk #handlettering #alwayshandpaint #soho #london #londonhistory #signpainting

A well preserved painted sign for the firm of Wallin & Co Ltd, Tin box manufacturers on Globe Street, Southwark. It sounds like the company was active between the early 20th century and the eighties. The lettering on the sign itself is faded but still very sharp, possibly due to the fact it was painted on metal rather than directly on to the wall. . . . #typespotting #typeinthecity #oldtype #oldsigns #urbantype #urbantypography #urbantyping #urbanlettering #foundtype #foundtypography  #streettypography #streettype #streetsigns #london #ghostsign #letters #lettering #signs #signage #signhunting #ghostsigns #surreyhistory #ghostsignsuk #handlettering #alwayshandpaint #southwark #london #londonhistory #signpainting

Neon script signage at the Crown and Anchor, a sadly closed pub on the New Kent Road in London. Looking closely you can even see the nameplate of Pearce Signs, the company who hung it up all those years ago. Last time I was in the area there was some activity going on in the pub but I've heard no word of redevelopment plans. One to keep any eye on... . . . #glass #stainedglass #stainedglasswindow #windows #glassworks #window #type #typography #typespotting #typeinthecity #oldtype #oldsigns #urbantype #urbantypography #urbantyping #urbanlettering #foundtype #foundtypography #streettype #pubs #textures #letters #lettering #windows #neon #bermondsey #london
