WEST BELMONT AVE.

This sign makes me giggle. Austinites also enjoy the sign – it has won the Austin Chronicle’s Best Storefront/Sign award several times.
DR. BLANK was replaced by DR. JEFFREY GLEIBERMAN – that detail was not retouched. If I could add more designer labels, I would. I will revisit this spot during the day for a better shot.
I love this sign for its numerous typefaces (and slogans!). I think it belongs on the other side of the river (on South Congress Ave.) instead of its place in downtown Austin where it’s dwarfed by newer, shinier buildings.


Hand painted by sign artist Greg Jones. I’ll admit these aren’t the best photos, but I was never around early enough to get a good shot (sans shadows and traffic).
