Ludlow Tempo: Potential Revival
Going through some old type specimens, I found this example of Ludlow Tempo (1931). To my knowledge, the full family has not been revived in the digital age. Yes, it was a blatant Futura rip off, but it has unique and beautiful humanist italic forms. If you are interested in seeing more or if you know of a revival already out there, comment away. 3 Responses to “Ludlow Tempo: Potential Revival”Leave a Reply |

It reminds me of Sasson Primary and Gill Light Italic blended together.
Wow, beautiful font. Love it.
I am a lover of humanist sans faces and would love to see as many digital revivals as possible as long as they offer something different and unique as this does. I say YES revive it!
