Finally found some time to cut together this footage I shot of the sign painting legend that is @noelbweber during the London Letterheads meet earlier this year. . Noel is one of the original seven Letterheads, a group of apprentices who came together in 1975 to form a movement founded with an ethos of open egoless learning, passing skills from one generation to the next. This movement has now spread all over the world with meets taking place annually in cities everywhere. . Noel gave a talk during the meet about his incredible career and how he painted his very first signs on US army bases in Vietnam after being drafted into the war in 1969. Swipe to see some of his in-country handiwork. . He’s also got a kickstarter on the go for his new book ‘A Sign Painter’s Sketchbook’. Take a look at his profile for more details. #letterheads #alwayshandpaint #noelbweber
