With the holidays right around the corner can’t help but think about all those going back to their home towns. For me seeing what’s left of the original and still somewhat tasteful signs from Craiova always feels like a great greeting card when I go back. With this in mind sharing with you this analog photo from Timișoara taken with a Yashica T5D.
Happy holidays!

Sign for Vânju Mare, a small town located in Mehedinți County, Romania. Like many signs in the southern part of the country, it borrows the monumentality of the endless column by Brâncuși while also emphasising local businesses such as vineyards , beekeeping and new industries.

Modernist sign for Năvodari. I particularly like the type and the swirly shape that plays on the greek key pattern.

4 of the 5 signs and one artwork which exist on the borders of the city of Medgidia. The region has a rich history. It was part of the Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire before being a part of Romania after the Russo-Turkish war between 1877 and 1878. During the Communist era, the city became an inland port to the Danube-Black Sea Canal. The Danube-Black Sea Canal crosses the town for about 6 km of its length.

Directional sign for Venus and Jupiter resorts on the Romanian seaside. The sign has the same design and the same materials as the individual signs for the resorts themselves.

Sign for Dej, a municipality in Transilvania.
The sign still contains the original socialist coat of arms. Today the coat of arms is still quite the same, only the inescutcheon (the smaller central shield) has been replaced.
