Eigenlijke + mis + #DutchIJ spotted on this old poster, intended for religious education, I suppose? Seen in the Antiquariaat O.M. van Hoorn in Nijmegen. Still for sale!
De lijn: public transport (busses and trams) in Flanders, Belgium, proudly carrying daily #DutchIJ's
Walking through Den Haag and spotting this sign was like bumping into your favourite actor in a liquor store ('slijterij'). Starstruck! #DutchIJ
Cherry on top was the neon IJ in 'wijnhandel'
For who's hungry - Jumbo's frozen bami schijven come with a #DutchIJ on the side
One more Den Haagse #DutchIJ lettering, spotted in the Assendelftstraat. Rijwielen, onderdelen en banden, by Waterreus & Co., a company started in 1911. #ghostsigns
Sometimes they try to pursuade the general public by including cute illustrations, or trick them with a play on words. #DutchIJ
Locl announcement: It seems that Hagenezen (Den Haag residents) would appreciate it if exits are kept clear. At all times. Day and night. Weekends too, please. With and without #DutchIJ.
Spotted out and about:'Tien wandelingen door Parijs' (ten walks through Paris) by Huib Luns, published in 1934. Three is a magic number #DutchIJ's
As the prophecy foretold, a minor update to Arugula https://drj11.itch.io/arugula-font that adds new glyphs, ∵⁂∴ (BECAUSE, ASTERISM, THEREFORE); a new #DutchIJ glyph (and discretionary ligature); and, somewhat radically for this font, character alternates for 0 (/zero with backslash) and J (/J with flat hook).
And fixes the 1 FDU error for .
Share and Enjoy!
Stunning sign in Amsterdam, including not one, not two but three (!!!) #DutchIJ's: Rijksdepot van IJszout, Amsterdam. A historical landmark, the lettering was restored in 2019.
Beautiful type, beautiful confident #DutchIJ. 'Rijwielen' bikeshop in the Mariënburgstraat Arnhem, 1920. Repost from my Twitter/X account.
