In the Seinfeld episode “The Wizard” (February 26, 1998), Kramer retires to Floria and runs for president of Jerry’s parents’ condominium association. A series of newsletters shows how close Kramer comes to winning the election, nearly opening the door for Jerry’s deposed father to wield power from behind the scenes.

The headlines are set in Helvetica Extra Compressed; the nameplate is in ITC Zapf Chancery.

Seinfeld creator Larry David, according to the minor headlines in Futura Condensed Oblique, went from hole-in-one golfer to premature retirement over the span of the three split-second font pages.
