Road Picture JNL fonts from Jeff Levine Fonts - (plpdl)

Road Picture JNL
Designed by Jeff Levine, Road Picture JNL is a display sans and hand display font family. This typeface has two styles and was published by Jeff Levine Fonts.


Road Picture JNL was modeled after the hand lettered title and credits for the 1940 Bob Hope-Bing Crosby semi-musical comedy “Road to Singapore”, and is available in both regular and oblique versions.

Although the lettering design doesn’t resemble anything that was probably used in Singapore at the time, its faux “exotic” look still makes for an interesting revival.

Bob Hope and Bing Crosby made a total of seven “road” pictures, hence the homage in the name of this type font.
