I tried to take a nice screen shot of the movie House on Haunted Hill-Remake 1999.
I recognized this typeface as ITC Anna or that's what it looks like to me. This scene was when the guests were going to the mansion and there were looking at there invitations in the limos in route to the house.

I scanned this image from-Next: The New Generation in Graphic Design.
I like the typeface and logo, it has a retro feel which I like. I was going to guess the typeface as Bauhaus but the book says spaceage.

I scanned this image from a book from Parklands library, Graphic Design Annual 2009. I got lucky because this image had the typeface on it. The type is Helvetica and I liked the whole design of this poster. It was a smart idea to use the type as the knife blade selections on the swiss army knife.

Project 1: Type Poster-ITC Usherwood



ITC Usherwood was created by Leslie Usherwood. Leslie Usherwood was born in England in 1932 and attended the Beckenham School of Art in Kent. He worked for 15 years as a lettering artist in the commercial art field. ITC Usherwood is a roman design with the classical trait of ascenders that are taller than the capitals, but has a very large x-height. ITC Usherwood is useful for short text blocks and can be used in display work for posters and invitations.
