One more specimen for our humble but growing collection of Henrietta in use – and the second one from the United Kingdom – via the Sainsbury Archive, where this teacakes label is dated “1970s–1980s”.

Henrietta is a photo-era typeface of unknown origin that was shown in 1980 by Phil’s Photo Inc., a type provider in Washington, DC. In 2022, Kyle Benson made a digital revival and expansion named VC Henrietta.
