Central Avenue
by Colophon Foundry
The inspiration for Central Avenue stems from hand-painted signs for the 1886 exhibition of local Manufacturers and Natural History in Birmingham – and was actually created first as a bespoke typeface for an exhibition about the infamous 1886 exhibition. Inception, anyone?
