Hobo Signs

by Matias Romero · Website

Hobo Signs by Matias Romero is a pictogram font based on the traditional symbols used by itinerant workers in the early 20th century to communicate information about towns, homeowners, and dangers along the road. Each glyph is a simple geometric mark with real historical roots, making it a genuinely interesting resource for editorial illustration, infographics, or themed design projects. It's not a text face at all, just a collection of icons with a fascinating backstory.
