About Theater Sign JNL Font Family


Solid, counterless Art Deco lettering is nothing unique, but the sign shown in a photo from the October 16, 1937 issue of Motion Picture Herald took things to a different level.

The Augusta Theater (in Augusta, Kansas) used such a type style on its marquee sign, but what was unique was the parallel horizontal lines cutting through each character.

This was recreated digitally as Theater Sign JNL, and is available in both regular and oblique versions.

Fortunately, the theater still exists, and after a full renovation it is now a performing arts center... and yes, that classic sign is there as well!

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.
