A monoline retro script by Amy Hood, inspired by 1950s matchbook covers, travel postcards and Hollywood signage, released through Retro Supply Co. in 2015.
About
Drawing on mid-century Californian commercial art, the typeface captures the optimistic, unpretentious character of post-war American design. Its consistent monoline weight suits both informal settings like Tiki bar branding and more polished applications such as film poster lettering. An extensive set of stylistic alternates and ligatures allows considerable variation within a single weight.
Classification
A monoline script with consistent stroke weight throughout, drawn in a retro mid-century style. The even line weight and upright-to-slanted letterforms are characteristic of casual brush lettering from 1950s American commercial art.
