Another entry in our ongoing vintage t-shirt collection, this classic 80s tee boasts of one's unrequited love the Miami area movie rental hub Gonzalez Video. And FYI, Algerian font don't charge no late fees!

I Dream of Anfisa



The local sex personals paper out here is called the LA Xpress. Sexy Russian model Anfisa Jeffries(?) has now graced this classy rag's cover twice in the last six months, and each time her name appears in the most risque font of all. You go, girl!

 


Manicures and Beers in New York's Little Algeria

While in NYC last July I just knew there'd be some businesses that loved Algerian font asmuch as they do out here in LA. Lo and behold, I drank my beer with manicured hands...


Sock It To Me


It's getting down into the 50s here in LA, time to get some winter clothes! The Supply Sergeant is an old Burbank surplus store that always delivers the goods. And not only did I get a warm pair of wool socks, I added to my Algerian collection, hehe...

The Algerian Punk Rock Scene Goes Global

While visiting my old friend Will Cole in NYC last summer we talked about the good old days of bands and zines, and he produced this original flyer circa 1996 for his band The Infertil rockin' ye olde Algerian itself. 90s, baby!

He currently plays in the band Olde Ghost and runs the label Handstand Records, check it out!

High Speed Chase


What's that in the distance??? Methinks there's some Algerian on that bus up ahead. Driver, speed up!

Yes indeed, that very much is our favorite font. That bus is outrageously painted, just can't quite make out what it is...

It's a darn Mariachi bus!!! Toca la guitara por mi corazon para siempre...
