Kellar embed a specific alternate form of “G” found on an antique circus poster as well as several other alternates. Eying specific Scotch Roman’s characteristics and fully equipped with “almost-too-long-serifs”, Kellar is cut out for distinctive bizarre headlines. • #Kellar #typeface #typedesign #typography #font #type #design #graphic #graphicdesign #letters #editorial #thedesignblacklist #generaleclectics #thebrandidentity https://www.instagram.com/p/B5uoC2PBY9b/?igshid=bc4dxpd1sg66

Kellar was named after the multi-talented Thomas MacKellar (1812-99), associate owner of one of the nineteenth-century leading American type foundries: MacKellar, Smiths and Jordan (MS&J). Not only was he a published author and poet who came to manage the composing room floor, but he also was the founding editor of the Typographic Advertiser, M&SJ’s house organ. MacKellar introduced the practice of composing humorous riffs to print as sample text in specimen books. Kellar started as a synthesis of various Condensed Titles cuts found in MS&J’s Printers’ handy book of specimens (1871). • #Kellar #typeface #typedesign #typography #font #type #design #graphic #graphicdesign #letters #editorial #thedesignblacklist #generaleclectics #thebrandidentity https://www.instagram.com/p/B5ry53dB_8g/?igshid=6wkpf2nxpeax

🎩 New release: Kellar Headline Condensed. The homonymous Harry Kellar – a 19th century American magician predecessor of Harry Houdini – was yet another source of inspiration for this typeface: reviving the heydays of Victorian era letterpress posters into contemporary editorial typography. • #Kellar #typeface #typedesign #typography #font #type #design #graphic #graphicdesign #letters #editorial https://www.instagram.com/p/B5pKSVjBTdZ/?igshid=1h7qlyaket5bf

Please welcome Kellar, my latest release! Incorporating the typical high contrast and narrowness of Didot-like fashion typefaces, Kellar stands as a quirky outsider, with it’s organic lowercases, expressive figures and emphasized oval structure. • #Kellar #typeface #typedesign #typography #font #type #design #graphic #graphicdesign #letters #posters https://www.instagram.com/p/B5mmtIphEoc/?igshid=mcem562znkgg
