The typeface
Tony [Frewin] used to print it is exactly the same typeface Kubrick used for the posters and title sequences of
Eyes Wide Shut and
2001. '
It's Futura Extra Bold,' explains Tony. '
It was Stanley's favourite typeface. It's sans serif. He liked Helvetica and Univers, too. Clean and elegant.'
