Cricket specimen from ParaType

A 1993 display italic grotesque from TypeMarket, drawing on the Crillee tradition with five styles including an inline shadow variant.

About

Designed by Alexander Kustov at TypeMarket in 1993, Cricket follows the oblique grotesque model established by Dick Jones's Crillee (Letraset, 1980). The specimen shows bold, angular italic letterforms with even stroke weight suited to headline and poster use. The family spans Light to Heavy with an additional Inline Shadow style for decorative applications.

Classification

The specimen shows a bold italic sans-serif with slightly condensed, angular letterforms and strong stroke weight, consistent with the Crillee-style oblique grotesque tradition. The Inline Shadow style confirms its display orientation.
