Background

Among the very first handwritten script fonts offered by Filmotype in the beginning of the 1950s, Filmotype LaSalle was designed by Ray Baker, a former Lettering Inc employee at the time who named the face after LaSalle street in downtown Chicago.

Filmotype LaSalle was developed from the original font filmstrips and includes a full international character compliment, automatic fractionals, ordinals, and a very large set of alternate characters and ligatures to allow flawless typesetting in dynamic OpenType format.
