    Various poster designs for musical shows produced and presented by 42nd Street Moon, a theatre company in San Francisco that is dedicated to celebrating and preserving the art and spirit of the American Musical Theatre.

    The titles are based on my Swonderful (The Ampersand Forest, 2019), an Art Deco typeface in three weights, with four variations of every uppercase character, and two variations of every lowercase character. It is paired with Neutraface (House Industries, 2002), which is typically used in all caps from its Condensed styles.
