Football is in the air! Like all great team sports, football (or soccer, if you are in the US) inspires its fans to identify with their favorite teams players, and sometimes even with a specific city or country.

About Gill SansŪ Book (Alt fig 1) ...
Designer: Eric Gill, 1931
Gill SansŪ Book (Alt fig 1) belongs to the Gill SansŪ Font Family which is part of the Monotype Originals.
The successful Gill SansŪ was designed by the English artist and type designer Eric Gill and issued by Monotype in 1928 to 1930. The roots of Gill Sans can be traced to the typeface that Gill's teacher, Edward Johnston, designed for the signage of the London Underground Railway in 1918. Gillīs alphabet is more classical in proportion and contains what have become known as his signature flared capital R and eyeglass lowercase g. Gill Sans is a humanist sans serif with some geometric touches in its structures. It also has a distinctly British feel. Legible and modern though sometimes cheerfully idiosyncratic, the lighter weights work for text, and the bolder weights make for compelling display typography. Gill Sans is also available as Value Pack for Macintosh, PC or as Hybrid CD with both platforms.
