Postler & Jaeckle

Odd thick sans serif with super thin serif ampersand. On a van in Walmart parking lot.

Grandma Howerter's Spelling Book

My mother passed along a book that was my maternal great-grandmother’s . 

A great ampersand from the back cover.

Green Ampersand

I assume Union Square Farmer's Market. Sexy Veggies and a nice slab serif. Thanks RAvenBoy!

Bread & Pastry

Hand tooled serif style on a NYC awning.

Flowers & Antiques

Carved and gilded, another NYC find.

Floral!

From Arron in NYC. A lovely floral twist!

Ampersand at the Movies

Food and ampersands, a perfect combination! And we really do adore Julia Child on so many levels.

The ampersand is Bernhard Mod BEF-Reg from Elsner+Flake Bernhard Modern EF

Kessie & Co.

This salon across from The Franklin Hotel on 87th St between Lex and 3rd in NYC had at least 3 different ampersands.This was the awning and seemed to be the main logo.

Done in a fun and dated sans serif ITC Bauhaus.


A crude addition to the front window. Stickers advertising a stylist.

In today's fonts it is probably best represented by Abadi Condensed Extra Bold.


A final lovely ampersand was painted on the window. Still working on the font.

Hook & Ladder

Found at a Hook & Ladder in New York City on E. 87Th St near Lexington Ave.

What a cool ampersand with a ball terminal. Unfortunately I cannot identify it at all.

Long shot of the fire house.

Metropolitan Museum of Art

A poster on 5th Ave. in New York City in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art advertising their Concerts & Lectures.

The font is closest to a Garamond-Italic or Pavane-Italic but seems to have been manipulated. Maybe even Galliard.
