"Flaunt yourself!" is a Polish website devoted to the history of interwar Polish advertising, which appeared mainly in printed form---a project by Sonia Jaszczynska and Ania Wielunska. The site has three parts:

  • In the gallery, there are over 250 advertisement posters, leaflets and illustrations.
  • In the study section, we find three texts. Aleksandra Maria Lewandowska-Ferenc writes about various forms of advertising. Andrzej Tomaszewski deals with typography and printing methods. Lastly, Michal Warda writes about an advertising poster of the interwar period.
  • One can download three typefaces digitized in 2020 on the basis of interwar posters---Kolombia, Renaissance and Makkabi. Included are also illustrations from classified ads, instructions for creating an advertising poster, sample posters and graphic elements from posters by Igor Kubik. Everything is available under an open license, absolutely free.

Borys Kosmynka and Ania Wielunska designed Kolumbia and Renesans, while Filip Tofil created Makkabi. Kolumbia is based on E.J. Kitson's Post Oldstyle Roman (aka Columbia. Buffalo, and Kolonel), while Renesans is a revival based on Jan Idzkowski's version of Berthold's Secession typeface.
