Needs Serif



I think they probably could have broken out a Serif font for this one, Colorado roadsign stylebook be damned. Photo taken, uh, one mile from Illiff.
If you geek out about stuff like this, the NYT had a nice article on road sign fontage a couple years back.

That was an interesting NYT article. I'm a bit of a typography nerd myself.

Reminds me of Zzyzx Road in the Mohave. Good stuff!
