    The brush script on the facade of this medical spa in Berlin-Kreuzberg (est. in 1957) is Slogan by Helmut Matheis (released in 1958). Comparing it to the original typeface design shows that several modifications have been made: the ‘M’ got tamed, the ‘s’ is taller, and the ‘ä’ suffers from a serious case of diaeresis lagomorphica.
