A single-weight display face by John Studden, drawn from a 1950s Zenith radio magazine advertisement and supplied with six alternate glyphs.
About
The design captures the hand-lettered flavour of mid-century American advertising, translating a specific vintage source into a usable digital typeface. Six bonus alternates extend the stylistic range without departing from the period aesthetic. At £15 for a single licence it sits comfortably in the affordable novelty display segment.
Classification
A decorative display face styled after mid-century American lettering, specifically inspired by 1950s radio advertisement typography. Its retro character places it firmly in the display category with a period-specific ornamental subcategory.
