Opera-Lyrics Smooth by Dennis Bathory-Kitsz is a free old-style display serif with broad, uneven strokes and a distinctly hand-inked finish. Rounded forms, soft edges, and shifting stroke widths give the lettering the look of type printed from a worn theatrical handbill.
It can create a period stage title for opera programs and event posters. The same expressive shapes suit album packaging and historical publishing. All favor printed lettering with a theatrical, eccentric streak.
