I’ve had these Supermarket covers knocking about for a while now, I love the subject matter (I love drawings of cities) and the styling and detail in them. I must be in a mode to make connections between things right now, but what struck me was the similarity between the night-time Supermarket cover below and this TWA poster for New York.

The Ministry of Type is a site about type, typography, lettering, calligraphy and other related things that inspire me. I am a designer, illustrator and front-end developer with over 20 years experience in web, print and identity and am based on the south coast of England. I love hand-tracing and recreating old designs as vector artwork, and there are many examples of that in this site.
