Talking Machine

From $55  |  2 Font Family by Jeff Levine Fonts

The February 1920 issue of The Trader/The Canadian Jeweler carried an ad for the $15.00 Stewart Phonograph.  

Under the logo for Stewart was the word "Phonograph" hand lettered with a round nib pen in an extra bold sans serif design with Art Nouveau influences.  

This served as the model for Talking Machine JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.

in the early days of the phonograph, many people nicknamed it a "talking machine" because it faithfully reproduced the human voice via recordings.
