About Film Stars JNL Font Family


A modified version of Art Deco lettering found on a Columbia Pictures promotional publication from July 9, 1935 is the basis for Film Stars JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.

This condensed monoline type design bears a distant resemblance to Huxley Vertical, but has its own set of unique characteristics. One possible application is for retro-influenced movie poster cast and crew listings.

The modification made to the original hand lettered design was the removal of extended crossbars on many of the characters which would have played havoc with spacing and kerning. What may have worked well in a custom lettering job of the past with variable word and character spacing might look awkward in today's conventional digital typesetting.

About Jeff Levine

Jeff Levine has been in love with lettering since the third grade, when a schoolmate brought a lettering stencil into class. He has worked in both the graphics and music industries, and began his work with digital type via his own site, which hosted over one hundred free dingbat fonts until its retirement in 2009. Although these fonts were experimental at best, Jeff received "thank you" letters from points all over the world for making his designs available. Encouraged by these responses, Jeff decided to set his sights on creating interesting and commercially viable type fonts.
