Cooper Font is an ultra-bold serif typeface designed for screen use that was designed by Oswald Bruce Cooper and released by the Barnhart Brothers & Spindler-type foundry in 1922. The typeface was drawn as the extra bold weight from the “Cooper Old Style “from the Cooper family. It quickly became a standard typeface and was licensed by American Type Founders and also copied by many other printing system manufacturers.
Its use in pop culture increased around the world since 1966 when the Beach Boys used it for the cover of their album Pet Sounds. She then appeared in The Doors’ LA Woman (1971) and David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust (1972) and in the opening credits of The Bob Newhart Show, Garfield, M * A * S * H, The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and other programs. The font is used for the Disney Sing-Along songs in the intro. As a result, Cooper Black has become an emblem of the late 1960s and early 1970s style. It is also known on railroads for its association with the “Yellowbonnet” paint scheme of the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroad. It also dates from the early 1960s, and it had “Santa Fe” in big yellow letters on the sides of the locomotive.
Cooper Black followed Cooper’s career as a lettering artist in Chicago and the American Midwest in the 1920s. Cooper Black was advertised as “for forward-thinking printers with myopic clients” as well as “the black menace” by naysayers. Although very bold, Cooper Black is based on the traditional “old-style” serif typeface, rather than the hard-edged “thick-faced” fonts popular in the 19th century, giving it a soft, “muddy look.” “, with relatively low contrast between thick and thin lines.
