Letterhead Fonts · John Studden
A layered display set styled after Ross F. George's Speedball lettering, comprising three pairs of Letters and Lines fonts that stack to produce plain, drop-shadow and block-shadow effects.
About
Each of the three styles uses a matching Letters and Lines font pair: the Letters font carries the base letterforms while the Lines font, placed on top in a contrasting colour, adds the decorative layer. The system covers plain, drop-shadow and block-shadow treatments, with three extra ornamental glyphs included in each Lines font. The overall aesthetic mimics early 1900s commercial lettering.
