Courier Magazine
Soft Type · Kyle Letendre · 2022

Hand-painted lettering created for the July/August 2022 Table of Contents of Courier Magazine, scanned from original painted artwork.
About
Produced as a one-off editorial commission, the lettering was hand-painted and scanned rather than digitised as a retail typeface. It accompanied illustrative elements for Courier Magazine's monthly print edition, directed by Sean Thomas. The work sits firmly in the tradition of expressive editorial hand-lettering rather than type design.
Classification
Hand-painted lettering scanned and used for editorial illustration; not a retail typeface but a bespoke lettering commission in a display, illustrative style.
