The Fort district is the oldest office district of Bombay. It is still an important commercial hub with the headquarters of many established enterprises located here. The area has largely retained its important officious air with grand letters marking imposing old buildings. The clutter of tiny establishments, street shops and branded stores, which is a characteristic of other commercial areas of Bombay, is slowly encroaching upon this area also. The large beveled sans serif moulded lettering is slowly coming apart and banners, translites and neons are sprouting up.

Mohammed Ali Road is one of the oldest districts of Bombay with a 'City of Djins' feel to it. Here one enters into a time warp; the area is populated by Muslims; old shops often selling exotic things like perfume and surma (eyeliner) are found here. The lettering and their formations borrow a lot from the Islamic calligraphic style even when they are in English.

Billboard painters will soon be a rare sight as large format digital print machines outstrip their utility.
