Need a sip of wine? Don’t miss this Whale-of-a-Sale in Chalk prootion at the Short Hills, New Jersey. The slab serifed “Vinyard Vines” typography and other hand-lettered font choices may not be sophisticated, but they get the chalkboard communication job done. And the cute smiling Whale sketch adds a touch of whimsy. Frankly, I would have drawn the Whale bigger, as an unusual visual “attention compeller.” CLICK the thumbnail for an alternate view.
