Headline Heads Up — No. 16

One Tues­day every month, I’m going to round up a cou­ple (maybe a few) awe­some dis­play type­faces to show­case and give a lit­tle break­down on each one. If you have a sug­ges­tion you want me to take a look at, drop me a line. Let’s jump straight into some head­line goodness.

Mission Script

Foundry : Lost Type Co-op

Designer(s) : James T. Edmondson

Cost: Name Your Price

First up this month is a gor­geous brush script inspired by the sig­nage of San Francisco. Mission Script by James Edmondson is a casu­al design with good flow. A few Opentype lig­a­tures and con­tex­tu­al alter­nates for repeat­ed let­ters like “ll” and “ss” are includ­ed. I love the weight and con­trast of the type­face — not too thick, not too thin.
