Dalek
A distressed small caps typeface rooted in the lettering of the 1964 Dalek Book and the TV21 comic strip, with angular forms evoking Greek, Phoenician and Runic alphabets.
About
Based on mid-1960s Dalek publication lettering, the family comes in three weights – Light, Regular and Heavy – each with an optically corrected italic. Characters cover Latin Extended-A, with Greek capitals and small caps included in K-Type downloads. The rough, angular aesthetic sits between ancient inscription and science-fiction, suited to period-appropriate or genre-driven editorial contexts.
Classification
A distressed small caps display typeface with angular, geometric forms drawing on Greek, Phoenician and Runic letterform traditions, placing it firmly in the display category with a retro-futuristic character.
