William A. Woolley
Designer of the heavy stencil Futura Black-like cubist typeface Braggadocio (Monotype, 1930). Jaspert recalls the differences with Futura Black: a heavy sans serif with a resemblance to Futura Black by the omission of thin strokes. But the letters are wider and the main strokes thicker; ascenders and descenders are shorter. The G has a spur; the J tapers to a point on the line. In the lower case c and s with their blobs approach more closely to the usual fat face design. |
