A dembow night screen-printed onto dark stock: a warm grainy near-black running to all four edges with a coarse even grain, and two hot inks on it — mint green carrying every piece of type and a pigeon or a gull standing upright, wearing trainers, a chain round its neck, a pigeon mid-flight, wings out carrying the one image. Even-width strokes and fully round bowls at a medium weight, used for numerals and times as much as for words set in the sides of every stem perfectly vertical and the corners square, letters set so close that adjacent stems merge into one bar across two lines of enormous caps in the upper quarter, overlapping vertically so the first line's descender band sits inside the second line's cap height, a date and a door time, in a ruled box, and a registered mark set at display size hard against the last letter. Vermilion printed as a single flat shape centrally behind the roster, its arms and legs passing behind the type. A one-line manifesto in tiny caps under the display. A roster of four acts down the middle in two columns, each name in bold caps with a kicker line of tiny caps above it carrying a one-line boast and a bracketed set format beneath. Wednesday 5 June, doors 8.30pm, 3 Sauchiehall Lane G2 3LW, and registration crosshairs in all four corners. The name set in the display type is the invented Terraza Larga, and every other word on the sheet is invented too. Soft-edged inks, flat middles.
