L.A. Signs zine series is a collection of Paul Price’s images of iconic buildings, street and neon signage from the city of Los Angeles. There are ten volumes in the series, each of which focuses on a different category.
Neon, building and street signage are an integral part of the urban landscape of Los Angeles. From the legendary hotels and glitzy restaurants, to the old famous theatres and the neon glow of the Los Angeles nightlife, signage is essential for businesses to stand out in this visually loud metropolis.
This zine series includes a varied selection of photographs taken across “The City of Angels”. A city everybody knows, but not the city everyone gets to see.
