Jazzy 1920s Lettering by Paul Fung

Artist George Freeman pointed me in the direction of an article about cartoonist Paul Fung and his Jazz Age lettering on the strip “Gus and Gussie” by artist Joakim Gunnarsson. This is a sample of a large display lettering collage Gunnarsson put together from the strip. Joakim writes, “Not only was he a talented cartoonist, he was also a really good letterer.” I agree! the article and more lettering is HERE. Click on the collage for a larger view. There’s also a link to another image, but it’s reversed white on black for some reason.
