Where new design goes to blossom and lost design goes to live again.

do it tomorrow, you've made enough mistakes today

So lemme tell you this. These signs I have right here are from an old liquor store. You can tell because they’ve got alcohol all over them. I mean logos. Also I know because I got them from a liquor store. Take a look at the genius cleverness included in every card. And the type’s pretty pretty too!

These come from what was once Westside Liquor in Saint Cloud Minnesota. They’re some of a fad that continues to today, that being mutually beneficial ad cards, posters, standups, installations, made by the beer and hard liquor companies that advertise for them, but also add credibility and a professional look to the stores that carry them.

Seek ye the silliness and ye shall have the beer sales.

These are part of the World Famous Design Junkies collection of photographed signs that one of our most famous posts comes from: Sexist Vintage – photographed in an old garage, this time in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
