Dr Phibes

by Billy Argel · Website

Dr Phibes is a tall, condensed decorative face from Billy Argel that draws heavily from Art Deco lettering, with elegant vertical proportions and ornamental details that recall 1920s and '30s movie title cards. The narrow letterforms have a vintage sophistication to them, equal parts glamorous and slightly eerie, fitting for a font named after Vincent Price's iconic horror character. Best at large sizes for headlines, posters, and period-themed branding where you want old Hollywood elegance with a hint of the macabre.
