Ransom

by Tom Murphy · Website

Ransom by Tom Murphy does exactly what you'd expect from the name: each letter looks clipped from a different newspaper or magazine, with mismatched sizes, styles, and baselines creating that classic anonymous-note collage effect. The mixed letterforms give it a chaotic, playful energy that works for headlines, posters, and editorial design where you want something deliberately unpolished and a little unhinged. Strictly a display face, since the jarring variety is the whole point.
