Pincoya Black Pro specimen from Latinotype

A heavy display typeface rooted in Spanish Civil War poster lettering and Chilean 1970s political graphics, offering OpenType alternates for varied typographic expression.

About

Designed by Daniel Hernández in 2011, the typeface draws directly from historical sources: Spanish Civil War posters and the visual language of La Unidad Popular, the Chilean political coalition of the 1970s. Two styles – Regular and Italic – come with multiple OpenType alternate characters, giving designers flexibility when setting headlines, logotypes or poster compositions. Latin script coverage spans Basic Latin through to Pan Africa Latin, Turkish and Central European character sets.

Classification

Heavy display typeface drawing from Spanish Civil War poster lettering and Chilean political graphic design of the 1970s. The bold, condensed letterforms with strong historical references place it firmly in the display category with blackletter and propaganda-poster influences.
