About this design preview

Do you remember those interchangeable letters, advertising the current features on the hoardings of cinemas and theatres? Those tall letters, condensed to accommodate long film titles as well as actors with long names. This design is inspired by Hurtig and Seamon’s theatre in New York, founded by Jules Hurtig and Harry Seamon.
