While I was in Toronto over Thanksgiving, my friends Andrew and Andrew brought me to a department store called Honest Ed’s, which you might also recognize from Scott Pilgrim. It was…quite the experience.
These were actually from a different store, but look! Scrabble mugs!
Ok, back to Ed’s. The thing about this department store is that they sell some really strange things. There seemed to be a department for anything you could ever possibly need, from clothing to hardware to toys to pianos to…mannequins and creepy Elvis sculptures. There’s even a hair salon and dentist. By far the best part though, were all the handpainted signs and lettering on all the walls. I tried to take photos of my favorites, but definitely make your way there to check it out for yourself if you ever get the chance.
