Novela specimen from Letterhead Fonts

A single-weight display face drawn from an antique early-1900s theatre poster, with five alternate characters for compositional variety.

About

Designed by John Studden, Novela takes its cues from ornate Victorian and Edwardian theatre poster lettering, producing a decorative uppercase face suited to short-form headline work. The inclusion of five alternates allows for modest variation within a layout. Its narrow application makes it most effective for branding or titling that calls for period character.

Classification

An ornate display face inspired by antique early-1900s theatre posters, placing it firmly in the Victorian/Edwardian decorative display tradition with elaborate letterforms suited to headline use only.
