I already did a poster exactly like that, remember! It's not Helvetica, it's Swis721 for an early 60s, no-nonsense typographical vibe. Gill is a 1940s fave (with a renaissance in the mid 90s due to the BBC corporate ident work using it)
John, you and Eric Powell should collaborate on a piece about pie, since he seems to hold similar views. I'm sure the Goon would play well with Archibald. Maybe not so much with Shelly.

I like, though I kinda expected more of a Gil Sans "Keep Calm" for the font than a Helvetica. But that's just me.

Ha ha I just read that Swis721 is to all intents and purposes Helvetica, you live and learn.
Yes, I remember, and I love your "British is Best" poster!
(Not really my place to suggest anything, just really making an excuse to talk to you. :) )
Sweet! (Or possibly savoury.) I like the genteelly-extended pinkie.
