As in Chenies Place Image this enamelled metal plate stands proud of the wall. It appears to be edge-fixed to a concealed wall-mounted baseplate: note the staining. Here all the writing is in one family of typefaces: Univers; the bespoke 'Camden' seen elsewhere is here written out as the council's name in full. Univers (French pronunciation: üni-vair) was designed by Adrian Frutiger in 1954 for the type founder Deberny & Peignot. It is renowned for its clarity and legibility, comes in many styles and has found many uses worldwide. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Univers
