COMPOSER JNL

There are thousands of pieces of vintage sheet music available for collectors and curiosity seekers.

Prior to the 1930s, a large percentage of them had wonderfully hand-lettered titles on the covers, but gradually there was a shift by music publishers to utilizing metal type for the bulk of their output.

Normally set in all-caps format, certain typefaces reappear in growing frequency and familiarity.

Composer JNL is one such example of a “workhorse” font and has been re-drawn and reinterpreted by Jeff Levine Fonts in both regular and oblique versions.
