Mildred's House of Signage
America's screenshotlargest metropolises are filled to the brim with different points of view and various ethnicities, both exemplified by the countless signs begging for our attention. In the Windy City specifically, the old and new blend together to influence the diverse mix of font and style choices depicted here. Tracy Jo Seneca pointed her camera directly at the signs of Chicago and offers a look at the charming, the cryptic, and the strange. Click through the handy menu and discover great sights including a giant man shilling for eye care, a closed diner that offered burritos, tacos and "hat dogs," and little pigs jumping into a sausage grinder. Breeze through this fascinating tour, and you might be prompted to look up, down, and around for unique signs in your town. (in Visual Arts)
