1920s-era sheet music for “Tangos Pour Manon” from Brussels, Belgium had the title hand lettered in an unusual style.

The alphabet was square, had serifs and the thick-and-thin stroke weights that were more popular in the upcoming Art Deco years of the 1930s and 1940s.

This became the working model for Torrid Tango JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.
