Two fonts; American Sans and American Sans Poster alternative characters, accents, numerals and punctuation.

During a trip to the US in 1976, I saw a lot of round topped capital "A"s. Hadn't seen anything quite like them at home so, decided to try them for myself. Ended up with a very useful face; animated, chunky and uses suprisingly little length for so bold a face.

Good for applying blended shade treatment. (More accurately, blended blocking and counter-shadow).
Countering was one of the few occasions I saw drop shadow (as opposed to shading) used before vinyl plotters came on the scene.
