Main poster
Pacella Vega, a bold, heavy serif designed by Vincent Pacella, was the main title font for Sydney Pollack’s 1972 revisionist Western, Jeremiah Johnson, starring Robert Redford. Supporting titling uses ITC Avant Garde Gothic. The credits look to be set in Grotesque Light 126.

Thanks for this fine addition, Garrison!
I think the credits on the first poster use a light style from the Monotype Grotesque family, series 126. Photo-Lettering showed a phototype adaptation in their ’69 Yearbook, as Grotesque No. 126.
Hey Florian, I agree! IMP Awards is pretty good about hosting large posters, as is the case here. Definitely see MT Grotesque’s quirkier bits at that size.
