Sign and Display

From $55  |  2 Font Family by Jeff Levine Fonts

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.
