Author's note

Yawnovision, by Ray Larabie, is a free old-school Western display font with the swagger of a saloon sign cut into poster lettering. The caps mix broad, rounded forms with sharp little flares and horn-like points, giving the letters a frontier-show feel that is theatrical without turning fussy.

It fits poster titles, album covers, bar branding, event flyers, and storefront graphics where a free font needs a bit of vintage showmanship. Because the caps are wide, ornamental, and tightly patterned, it also works well for short headlines, title cards, and monograms that want that carved, late-19th-century Western mood.
