The Sound That It Makes

There are more examples of poor typeface selection than there are appropriate. Or, to go a step further, what will from this point on be referred to as fontomatopoeia (definition: words whose typeface matches perfectly the structure of the word itself as well as its definition). Therefore, on the rare-ish occasion that one encounters an instance of fontomatopoeia, well, it must be celebrated, documented and shared in order that the masses may know what is good and right for the betterment of their future typeface decisions. So, this entry is dedicated to one of my favorite cities: New York.
