The 2018 edition features typefaces from Tipoteca, the type archive in the Italian village of Cornuda (see Pulp 06), while the 2020 calendar shows posters from twelve movies that have achieved fame and notoriety in Italian cinema history, including classics by directors such as Argento (The Cat o’ Nine Tails) and Fellini (Roma). Each month’s exuberant letters and numbers are derived from original cinema posters, and there are short biographies of the poster artists.
The Tipoteca pages use similarly extrovert display typefaces – including oddities such as Etna and Energos – from Tipoteca’s extensive collection. The giant first letter of each month is a ‘reinterpretation’ of the original by Design- Associati.
