I have to create a playbill type program for an event and was wondering if anyone has done this or knows where I can get a template to do this. Here is a what you might want to do: 1. Have a look at the Royal Shakespeare Company website or the Getty Images website and skim through the eighteenth century and nineteenth century playbills. These were set in wood type which could be coloured, which in technical typography is termed rubrication. Have a look at the TrueType that comes with Windows and Mac OS.

Perhaps you can find a copy of Elephant by Matthew Carter, Royal Designer for Industry. The original for this is an early nineteenth century poster type by the Figgins foundry of London. If you like writing, and if you can find two or three wood types, you can make a fun playbill in a couple of hours.
