David Airey has a beautiful collection of pics of the alphabet up on his blog. Pulled from a number of sources, these are incredible examples of thinking outside of the box to find typography in alternative environments, and create art through letterforms.
This one, from c71123 is simply amazing: the American sign language alphabet as demonstrated by matchbooks.
Check out the rest here.

Thanks very much for the kind mention. Pretty inspiring stuff there eh?
Now that is outsider creativity that I find astonishing.
When I was a kid I had a matchbook collection, and then as a smoking teen, I had a jar full of exotic matchbooks.
Thanks for sharing this avant garde art that respects the hearing loss world.
