After the two-line Yagi Double in 1972 and the seven-line Aki Lines in 1976, the Spirograph product line issued from 1983 on came dressed in yet another multiline typeface. This time it’s Optex, a geometric sans with one thick line and two fine lines. It was designed by Philip Kelly and Bob Newman and released by Letraset in 1970, maybe in response to Filmsense.

Optex was still used in 1988, after Kenner Parker was acquired by Tonka the year before, as seen on this Spirotot manual.
