script1940s brush script (cartoon lettering)
A dashing 1940s-style brush script inspired by hand-lettered titles from the Fleischer Brothers' Superman cartoons.
About
Kinescope takes hand-lettered Superman cartoon titles as a jumping-off point, though much of it had to be invented rather than copied directly. OpenType contextual features automatically pick the best character shape for its position in a word, mimicking hand lettering. It was designed and released alongside a sister face, Snicker.
Classification
A connected brush script with automatic letterform switching, kept in script alongside its Snicker sibling.
