Continuing the recent motoring theme, it's all aboard for a trip to The Philippines...

Jeepneys are a flamboyantly decorated mode of public transport and icon of The Philippines. But they are currently facing extinction. In this introduction to the joy of Jeepneys, you can watch Esy Casey's award-winning documentary film, and indulge in a gallery of these Filipino wonders, past and present.

But first, a massive thank you to our sponsors at A.S. Handover, The Design Trust, Mike Meyer Sign Painter, and Ronan Paints. And patrons Blackout Signs & Metalworks, Chicago Sign Systems, Colossal Media, Dragging the Line, John Moran, Right Way Signs, Sepp Leaf Products, and W&B Gold Leaf.
