Filmotype Ginger

Filmotype Ginger (2008, for Filmotype) was originally designed and released in the 1950s. Filmotype Ginger is a member of a range of compact sans serif fonts whose names begin with the letter “G” (a Filmotype convention) that have much in common with Futura—the one-story a, the round dots, the simplified t and u. If there were such a thing as Futura Compressed, it would look a lot like this. Ginger has its own unique characteristics, such as the prominent whip-lash spine on the S and its subtle hand-lettered feel.
