It’s an old news but I really like this poster. You can buy it here and also watch the process on videos.
Once there was a typeface called Helvetica. It was extremely popular. Later came a software company called Microsoft. They “borrowedâ€? Helvetica for their operating system and called it Arial. This inferior typeface is now on millions of desktops all over the world. Can you tell the difference between the original and the rip-off ?
Helvetica Film just released a new Experimental Jetset Poster : 27″ x 40″, litho printed. 20$
