LAST SHOW TONIGHT
Vernon Adams built Bowlby One from scans, a handful of display faces lifted out of type specimens from the early 20th century and fused into a heavy poster letter with a slightly roughened edge.
He meant it for headlines in capitals. A lowercase is in there too, with kerning, 288 characters and Latin only. Run it in caps with a little extra tracking on a gig poster or a sale banner, and keep it away from anything that runs past a short line.
