Blaze Type releases Nosferatu, a script after the 1922 film's intertitles

Blaze Type has released Nosferatu, a slanted, monolinear script by Sarah Salome Deletain and Jules Durand. It is loosely inspired by the lettering of the German intertitle cards of the 1922 silent film Nosferatu, drawn with a round nib by an uncredited calligrapher in a style based on Kurrent cursive. It comes in one weight with three stylistic sets and interlaced ligatures, for Latin European languages.
