Vintage advertising: shopping for nostalgia
Vintage advertising signs have been around for a while,especially at niche retailers and vintage themed events - but are now on the road to becoming mainstream. Retro kitchens will soon be all the rage and vintage lettering will appear everywhere, from shop fronts and festivals to food packaging and phone apps.
Designer vintage lettering and signs are available from firms
