The Museum of Letters


We all know that beautiful Neon Graveyard near Las Vegas. Big signs, dumped and preserved. The Museum of Letters in Berlin houses a huge collection of rescued letters that were once part of large store and factory name signs in Germany.

With the current rise in popularity of typography and a desire to preserve the past before it is too late, the Museum of Letters has been attracting crowds since its opening four years ago.
