This is so great—thanks for posting it!
The multi-color effect inside the type is impressive, especially considering this was all done by hand in the pre-digital era.
Right? It’s like a lighter weight, superimposed on the bold bottom-heavy shapes. I wonder if there are any digital layer fonts (or color fonts) that employ a similar technique.
