Fillmore Auditorium Typographic Artwork

Every so often I get back into digging through psychedelic typography driven posters from the Fillmore Auditorium, a staple music venue in San Francisco CA for the music of the late 60's. Here are a few of the posters from the Fillmore, for sale at a site called Wolfgang's Vault.

San Francisco Handstyles

A few old photos and a few recent ones of nice handstyles around San Francisco California. Not a lot of busflows or classic city names, but some things that people may not have seen. Photos by Kel Troughton.

90's graffiti in San Francisco

I took these photos in 2008, down off minna alley i think, in San Francisco. I used to check up on this wall every six months or so and finally walked inside the gated driveway to get these few shots, but as of a few weeks back its all buffed. There was a poem and someone else, burners with a big clown character and really tall pieces. The wall also had about 20 feet of some outlines, and tags, and these few letters, all from the 1990's SF. RIP more history. Photos by Kel Troughton
