Thai Folk Typography

Along our travels I amassed a serious collection of handwritten signs (what I like to call “Folk Typography”) from each country we visited. The Thai written language has particularly beautiful letter forms. I found tons of type stenciled, written and degraded all over the place. Thais still have a lot of visible handwritten signage, as does the country that I live in, Mexico. I hope it stays that way.
