A series of all-caps sans serifs emulating marquee lettering
with a cap height of five light bulbs, shown in six [PLINC 1950] and later in nine variations:
Act 1 (outlined with open dots), Act 2 (like 1, but with beams around the dots),
Act 3 (solid with reversed dots),
Act 4 (like 3 with additional beams), Act 5 (outlined with
solid dots), Act 7 (like 1 but shaded), Act 8 (like 5 but
shaded) Act 9 (solid dots only),
Contour (like 3 with additional contour). [PLINC One Liner 1971] All styles shown in
1965 [PLINC 1965] except for Contour which might
have been added later. [PLINC 1971]. The sample shows a mix (123456
73421538C4).
Showtime is very similar to Act
4. See also More…
