Tortillon Tryout

Tortillon Tryout by M. Bujardet is a free retro comic display font with a sly Art Nouveau curl running through the letters. Tall, theatrical strokes meet soft round forms, and those little spiral hooks give the font a poster-era flair that feels playful rather than precious.

It fits best where a title does the talking - on boutique packaging, cafe menus, magazine cover lines, event posters, and film title cards. As a free font, Tortillon Tryout works especially well for short headlines and monogram-like initials, because the curled details and sharp vertical rhythm have enough character to carry just a few letters.
