<p>The Czechoslovak poster was designed by <a href="http://k129.cz/lide-na-katedre/docenti/vratislav-sevcik/">Vratislav Ševčík</a>. He used <strong><a target="_self" class="entity-link" href="https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/10754/motter-ombra" data-entity-code-id="10754" data-entity-code-type="TypeEntity">Motter Ombra</a></strong> for the title, featuring custom diacritics made of fine lines that are commonly found <a href="http://fontsinuse.com/search/advanced?locations0=56%2C180%2C100&amp;tags0=470&amp;artwork-date0=before-1990&amp;match0=all&amp;filters=">on predigital posters from Eastern European countries</a>.
