Background

Shelby is a monoline, semi-connected script typeface based on hand lettering created with a Speedball ‘B’ metal nib. It has a natural appearance of handwriting, yet its style yields enough strength to be used for a variety of purposes – such as headlines, logos and eye catching call-outs. Shelby features several automatic ligatures, stylistic and contextual alternates along with 20 ornaments that have been designed to further its handwritten look.
