ABOUT







Edward Penfield

American illustrator, b. Brooklyn, 1866-1925, considered as the father of the American poster. Well-known for his art nouveau style posters, he created several alphabets.

Penfield's posters inspired several digital typefaces. André Zottolo's AZ Harpers July was inspired by Edward Penfield's poster art. BU Penfield Deco by Michael Bosen (or Michael Bolen) is also based on Penfield's typography.
