About

Modelled on the hand-lettered and typeset styles found on vinyl records from the 1920s through to the 1950s, the face carries a warmth associated with that era of print and packaging. Small caps are included, giving it a degree of typographic versatility beyond simple headline use. Best suited to music-adjacent branding, event posters and editorial contexts where a period aesthetic is called for.

Classification
