DIY signs offering services abound in New York, but this is one of the best examples of the genre I have run across. Simple and clear, centered, stock image, Times New Roman — not a big deal, right? But the sign's author had the knowledge or the eye, or both, to space the caps and also to space the solidus (forward slash). I prefer my slashes spaced, but I rarely do it in emails or online because it makes me feel self-conscious: no one does it. One might call it a peer pressure of the close-set solidus.
