Hand-lettered signs, helmets, parts, motorcycles, and all sorts of things I'm interested in.

Hand-Lettered 3 Wheeled Voodoo Doughnut Delivery Truck

This cool little vehicle was lettered by hand. Not mine, someone else's.  The doughnuts were very tasty and super filling.

Portland Outdoor Store, Portland Oregon


This building has some amazing old advertising and signage. I think the outdoor signs were hand-lettered many years ago, but its great to see they are still up.  The Portland Outdoor Store is still open to business and the store has a lot of vintage advertising inside as well.  Even if you're not into outdoor gear the signage alone is worth visiting the store.

Here are some I saw in the city.

April Sign of the Month- Iconic Downton Portland Sign (Portland Oregon Old town), Formerly The White Stag Sign

This the sign that welcomes visitors to the downtown portion of Portland.  My wife and I took some pictures of the sign, which was originally the White Stag Sports Wear Company's sign, but was changed several times until it now reads Portland Oregon Old Town.  You have to like a city that declares a sign an historical landmark.

I saw this on eBay.  Great image, but I didn't win the auction.

See See Motor Coffee Co. Motorcycle Coffee Shop in Portland, Oregon

My wife and I just got back from a trip to Portland, Oregon.  It is a good city to visit, full of great instrument stores and record stores, and must-visit places like See See Motor Coffee Co. Great coffee and friendly staff, plus a variety of unique custom bikes on display.  They also stock a good selection of indie bike mags, and I picked up the latest Sideburn from them.  Plus they have the 21 Helmets display, featuring custom painted helmets.
