The model for Bensonhurst JNL was a 1930s-era hand-lettered WPA (Works Project Administration) poster for the play “Hell Bent Fer Heaven”.
Although the basic style is a classic Art Deco “thick and thin” format, the design (in certain characters) starts to take on a feel of 1970s revival style. With this in mind, Bensonhurst JNL is a bit of a hybrid between the 1930s and the 1970s.
