Parsek specimen from ParaType

A single-weight brush script adapted from Robert E. Smith's ATF Brush Script, producing a heavy, informal tone suited to posters, signage and print advertising.

About

Designed at ParaType (ParaGraph) in 1990 by Elvira Slysh, Parsek derives from the American Type Founders' Brush Script of 1972. The coherent lowercase and consistently dark colour make it readable at display sizes while retaining the spontaneity of hand-lettered brushwork. Its single Bold weight is aimed at posters, newspapers, magazines and other informal applications.

Classification
