Summary
From the 1920s to the time of his death in 1975, photographer Walker Evans was obsessed with the signage he found in modern America--from billboards to gas station pumps to street graffiti to handmade announcements of a Saturday-night dance. This book features 50 of his photographs of signs from the Getty Museum's collection, plus 50 additional illustrations.
