The second in the 'When Better Letters met' series of short films documents the life and work of Josef Samuel, a 4th generation sign painter and owner/founder of Vienna's incredible Schildermalermuseum (Sign Painter Museum). Directed by Tom Koch and presented by Stuart Freeman this short film takes you back to the golden age of sign painting in Vienna, and through to the modern day.
We would like to thank Colossal Media and Right Way Signs of Chicago for their continued support of this series of films. And, of course, Josef Samuel, for sharing his story with us for this one.

Reverse glass painting so difficult to accomplish .
The digital world is so unsatisfying.
Magnificent. Some see signs, some see the art. I enjoy veiwing a old "no fishin" or "keep out" sign that was lettered by a novice. Nice video. Good day. 🇺🇲
Who is responsible for the background music ?
Shaky style that's the best !
Josef you're an exceptional Signwriter of the highest order,your work is outstanding.
These are the real masters of the art of Sign Painting. .............Itchy
Amazing! Mr. Samuel's signwriting museum is now on my bucket list! That effect shown at 8:40 is incredible!
A travel back in time. Very romantic. Love it.
The ultimate reflection too !
The ultimate reflection too !
Great video, but subtitles are not always readable. If you put a dark background behind the letters, they will be readable.
Today it's a battle between computers vs hand made signs ,time, money .
Amazing!! Bucket list for sure! Mr. Samuel is a truly artist!! Congrats to him and Better letters for give us this wonderful video.
Mother of pearl !!! No one sees that or even knows about it .
That's true it's absolutely wonderful!!!
Lovely but a bit sad at the same time, I wish he had someone to carry it on with him
Masters !!!! Real quality !!
