Newspaper: Folha De S.
Title: Movie stars in your newspaper.

This typeface art is part of a series that ran in the Brazilian newspaper.A promotional stunt to get buzz back into the press. Tributes to the memory of cinema's sliver age stars that helped to shape the direction of the industry both on and off the screen. Everything is clean serif font; Every letter is carefully utilize to shape the familiar poses and appearances that resonate with the public memory.

Here we see the enduring little tramp dressed in a suite of capital and lower case letters. Leaning on his can of capital L and little i. Even his mustache is a type with the twin dots and black block. A fun little project to say the least.
