Sanitation JNL FONT Download
Designer: Jeff Levine
Publisher: Jeff Levine
Sanitation JNL is a bold Art Deco sans design inspired by some stylized hand lettering on a 1930s-era WPA (Works Progress Administration) poster and is available in both regular and oblique versions.
The topic of the poster was “Your home is not complete without a sanitary unit” and that was recommended by the State Department of Public Health. A “sanitary unit” is the formal name for what rural folks called an “outhouse”, and it’s presumed the target group were homeowners not hooked up to major sewer lines such as in those rural areas.
