Alphabet Truck by Tabuchi

Since Sacramento is a hub for some of California’s major freeways (5, 80, 99), there’s a lot of local truck traffic.

And there’s always some interesting typography to go with them. Yellow is one of my favorites, because it’s not actually yellow. It’s orange.

I also enjoy the typography and colors of the Werner line.

And I do miss the iconic fruit covered Raley’s trucks – no longer seen around town. Artwork by the great Don Birrell of historical Vacaville Nut Tree fame.

On a related note, here’s images from Paris-based photographer Eric Tabuchi’s Alphabet Truck series (above) volume one and volume two.
