Svengali Roman

Svengali Roman is a retro font family. This typeface has four styles and was published by Greater Albion Typefounders.

Svengali Roman is loosely inspired by a scrap of 1920s newspaper posted in the Typophile font identification forum.

Svengali Roman is loosely inspired by a scrap of 1920s newspaper posted in the Typophile font identification forum.  The consensus view there favoured the view that the specimen showed hand-drawn lettering.  As that lettering had such charm and character Greater Albion decided to fill the gap and design a face loosely based on it. Svengali Roman is the result and makes an excellent face for eye catching period poster design, or for any headings and titles.  Svengali Roman has now been expanded to a full family, including regular and bold weights as well as incised (a hand tooled look) and newsprint (weathered worn type with ink bleeds) styles.
