Loving those curves by @andrewsketch for today’s Goodtype Tuesday! @andrewsketch ・・・ This weeks good type challenge focuses on their tag line ‘strength in letters’. Had to go with the flow with this one and just worked up my first sketch to make sure I got it done in time. • To me, strength in letters helps unite all lovers of type, calligraphy, lettering, signage, and fonts together. It’s so inspiring to see people from all over the world getting behind their craft, and championing letters. Thanks @goodtype for being one of many accounts bringing letter lovers together! • #goodtype #goodtypetuesday #gtstrengthinletters #type #lettering #calligraphy #shadowtype #handmade #handlettered #cursive #fatbottomedletters #together #friendships #champion #goodvibes https://www.instagram.com/p/B56Rsi_pm6z/?igshid=earwf23z57uc

Some nice type in the post office on east 23rd street. Completed in 1933, it feels like nothing has changed since then. Well worth a quick peek if you’re nearby. #30s #1933 #flatirondistrict #shadowtype #lettering #letteringbyhand #postofficelife #pobox #brassletters #newyorkhistory #nydesigner #nycphotographer #typewalk #roosevelt #thirties (at United States Postal Service) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo7W0GjBugc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1g80ndfzhmljb
