Numbers / letters
I love collecting vintage letters, signs, fonts, stamps etc.
Maybe my addiction to scrabble has encouraged this collection, or the countless word and number games played as a child, but I am definitely hooked. I notice them, photograph them with my phone and seek them out. These are some of the pieces I have found over the years. Usually, I find them at small flea markets and often at Brimfield. I like to go through old games at estate sales and often find them on Etsy and Ebay, They are around, they vary and have so much character. Their availability and huge variety feeds my obsession, and I am pretty comfortable with that.
We sell letters and numbers at our shop in Nyack, NY - Archive Home. Right now, we have wooden vintage worn carnival letters from the 50's which are pretty fantastic. I also like The Vintage Wall for letters. They make it incredibly easy to shop and the layout of their site is great.
