A decadent, low-contrast serif by Elvira Baibikova that recalls the phototype advertising faces of the 1980s.
About
Blavatsky is confident and mannered, with fine serifs melting into the strokes and wildly varied proportions from letter to letter. Low contrast and careful hinting keep it readable small on coarse screens, while text set in it is extremely dense. Stylistic Set 01, Witchcraft, swaps in occult-flavoured forms from 1990s America.
Classification
A low-contrast serif recalling late 20th-century phototypesetting and 1980s advertising, with thin serifs that flow into the stems and exaggerated proportions between letters. Very dense in text.
