Typeface: The Optimist

This here font is called "The Optimist". There's a bit of a backstory if you're interested:

Back when I was about 16, I had the privilege of visiting SFMOMA (San Francisco Museum of Modern Art) and there was a poster that struck me because of the typeface it used. I've long since lost the title, but I believe it was called "A Letter Home". Since then I've tried to find it online many times but unfortunately I have been unsuccessful.

This font is what I remember of the typeface from memory. If you have seen the poster or know the title and artist of the piece I'm talking about, please let me know. You would ROCK my world.

Anyways, thanks for viewing! If I get enough requests I'll make this into a full font file. :)
