An original image that takes its structure from ITC Style (Style, 1970s–1980s) and its accent from Push Pin Style (Style, 1954–1980s). Structural cues: Huge x-heights; Tight-not-touching settings; Swashes and ligatures on stage; Letters as image. Accent cues, used sparingly: Eclectic historical revival; Fat contours, ornamental color; Illustration-led composition; Wit and quotation. Composition: The headline massed into a few lines, leading closed to make one shape. Type and lettering: A large x-height face packed tight, with ligatures and swashes worked in. Let one material quality come from the second style: Flat fields of muted secondary color inside heavy contours. Mood: Exhilaration, Play, Luxury, Nostalgia. Color: build on #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615 with a single accent drawn from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - ITC Style: Tracking pushed until the letters touch turns the line into pattern rather than reading and the headline stops working.
# - Push Pin Style: Choosing a historical style without the wit that justifies it turns quotation into plain nostalgia and makes the eclecticism look like a pile.
