SUNRISE OVER THE RAIL YARD
Sunrise is Blackout traced. The letters are the same heavy capitals with every hole filled, but only their outline is drawn, so a B or an O becomes a single closed loop with nothing inside it, and the inside of every letter shows whatever is behind the type.
Tyler Finck built Blackout from scratch in 2008 and The League of Moveable Type publishes it in 3 versions. Sunrise is the stroked one, next to the solid Midnight and the reversed 2 AM.
Capitals only; lowercase keys give capitals too. Put it over a photo or a flat color at poster size, where the thin line around a fat letter has room to be seen.
