Wall sticker in Marlborough lesbian pub, Brighton.i’m actually realizing this nowbut the original poster said “queer power” and someone erased that and replaced it with “gay power”real classy#is this realWell. I’m not exactly an expert at image analysis, but the bottom text in the first one looks much cleaner than the top text while the second one matches better. Also, the creases in the second one on the Q and U seem like the sort of detail that wouldn’t be faked. Finally, this actually matches up significantly better to “queer” politics than “gay” politics; it was always queers who advocated and took the front lines in direct action.I’ve taken 3 typography classes. “Queer Power” is 100% the same typeface as the “You only gave us rights…” text. “Gay Power” on the other hand is nowhere fucking close to being the same typeface. Confirmed by an expert! I actually didn’t even look at the typeface on “Queer Power,” except to note that it kinda looks like what I’d expect from late 80s-early 90s homemade fliers, while the “Gay Power” one very much does not. -- source link
