The Midnight Gang Font

The Midnight Gang is a children’s book written by David Walliams and illustrated by Tony Ross, published by Harper Collins in 2016.

The letter “N” and “A” of the book title on the cover reveal the title lettering was likely designed based on Paul James Lloyd’s Birmingham New Street. The typeface was inspired by the hand lettered title on a 19th century railway map. It is a fun family of three decorative faces, laden with open type features and late Victorian charm.
