Ballada Brush Font

Brush Script is a casual connecting script typeface designed in 1942 by Robert e. Smith for the Yankee type founders (ATF). The face reveals an exuberant photograph stroke emulating the look of handwritten letters with an ink brush. Lowercase letters are intentionally irregular to further have an effect on the appearance of handwritten text.

The typeface was added in 1942 and saw near instant fulfillment with advertisers, retailers, and in posters. Its reputation continued via the 1950s and waned as an impact of the international typographic style grew within the 1960s.
