Modern antiqua (Victorian, Scotch Roman) «Dodo», 2008–2019.
Named so as a portmanteau of Bodoni – Didot.
XIX-th century fonts, especially Victorian antiquas, were almost excluded from the modern use by their XX-th century's descendants.
And these new books had lost too much of their former beauty, elegance. Their old noble spirit.
This project, «Dodo» was started in 2008 year as the first then modern revival for the Old Imperial Russian book scotch antiqua, used 120–170 years ago in almost every printed book. Still keeping the spirit of the Steam æra.
Download Sign and Display JNL Font Family From Jeff Levine Sign and Display JNL is a long-overdue companion font to 2009’s Sign and Poster JNL. The original design models were Art Deco influenced die-cut cardboard letters and numbers manufactured by the Duro Decal Company of Chicago. Square in shape with rounded corners, the thick cardboard letters were used for making show-cards and other display signage. Subsequently, Duro used the same style of lettering to manufacture water-applied decals for boat identification and other uses. It was a set of these decals (with a black outline and yellow interior) that inspired the outline typeface Sign and Display JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.
