This Sunday we put a spotlight on Accelera. The bold rounded sans got its name from the triple shadow: with these motion lines, it looks as if the letterforms are taking off. As a result, Accelera was used for #ScienceFiction books like #AndreNorton’s space sagas, but also for other uplifting things like #RoseyGrier’s Needlepoint for Men, or #SesameStreet’s Sing-Along! albums. Designers loved to use PLINC’s early-1970s #font with different colors for the shades.
On this week's #StupidAccordionTricks, from 1974's #FreeToBeYouAndMe, here's the song #ItsAllRightToCry performed by the sensitive football-playing cross-stitch enthusiast, #RoseyGrier.
I saw this movie when I was a teenager, and now I really, really want to see it as an adult.
