Forgotten Playbill Font Download

Designer: Lauren Ashpole

Years ago, I came across a vintage playbill and was struck by its lettering. The detailed floral pattern surrounded by thick outlines stayed in my mind even though the play’s name and cast have faded. I finally tried to recreate the style from memory and Forgotten Playbill is the result.

While all letters are actually capitals, the uppercase rotate slightly counterclockwise and the lowercase slightly clockwise. I suggest alternating between the two to reproduce my mystery inspiration.
