Quite a character, that ampersand…
CSS wizard Dan Cederholm has an interesting post on the use of the ampersand. It includes handy charts of the ampersands available by default on the Max OS X, Windows XP and Windows Vista operating systems.
Speaking of fonts, Joshua Darden has a bunch of interesting offerings, including the brand new Jubilat, used by An Event Apart 2008. His Birra Stout is a free font, if you’d like to give that a whirl. Great looking ampersands in these sets - see ‘em here.
