ARB 67 Modern Roman is a display screen serif and art nouveau font style family. This typeface has sixteen styles and was published by The Fontry.

Hunting for a Roman font style with severe serifs and vintage shapes usually turns up some quite common and yawn-worthy outcomes. Unfortunately, one Roman serif tends to appear like another. And then you find yourself looking at this font, a headliner face that takes its task (and serifs) really major. However gaze too long and you'll find yourself looking at lines and curves that aren't all that familiar. What is taking place? Are we still in the new millenium? Of course we are—— however this font isn't. It thinks its still 1937, and "SIGNS of the Times" publication by ST Publications has simply released it as the 67th alphabet by master indication painter, Alf R. Becker. But vint as it is, this face has actually been combating the font wars given that 1999, and as of 2009, it has a companion now for those continuous fights. Reinforced by a tall simulacra of its standard, wider self, ARB 67 lastly stands all set to engage all of those empty headlines and banners and signboards that just cry out pleading for a font style like this.

Beginning in January, 1932, Alf R. Becker of St. Louis Missouri, at the request of then-editor E. Thomas Kelly, provided "INDICATIONS of the Times" publication's brand-new Art and Style area with an alphabet a month, a task at first anticipated to last only 2 years. Misjuding the popularity of the "series," it instead ran for 27 years, ending lastly two months prior to Becker's death in 1959, for a grand total of 320 alphabets, a nearly best, continuous run. In late 1941, simply 10 years after the first alphabet was released, 100 of them were put together and released in bookform under the title, "100 Alphabets," by Alf R. Becker.

As released in July 1937, this is the description that accompanied Becker's 67th alphabet, Modern Roman thick-and-Thin:

.

Modern Roman Thick-and-thin, Alf R. Becker's sixty-seventh alphabet in his INDICATIONS of the Times series, is an attractive, easy-to-read headline letterform, similar in some respects to Spurred Egyptian Thick-and-Thin.

.

Many font designers have actually tackled converting Becker's incredible achievement from paper to digital, and numerous claim to treat his deal with care and self-respect. However the Fontry's Becker fonts stay the most traditionally accurate and feasible treatments readily available, getting here in two industry-satisfying variations: CAS (Computer-Aided Signmaking) and DTP (Desktop Publishing). And similar to all Fontry fonts, the kerning is not optional—— it's extraordinary-!!!
