German DIN A1 (23.25″×33″) poster for the 1971 re-release of For a Few Dollars More. Originally released in 1965 and titled Per qualche dollaro in più, the Spaghetti Western film was directed by Sergio Leone and stars Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef as bounty hunters.
The title is set in Arthur Murawski’s Magnet, an inclined typeface with horizontal contrast and bracketed serifs. Ludwig & Mayer introduced it in 1953, claiming it was closing a market gap for such French Clarendons, or Italiennes, as they were called in German.
Secondary text is in Folio schmalfett, featuring both of its forms for the lowercase a, with and without tail.
