Example of "Bad Typography"




I searched campus to find an example of bad typography, and this poster is what I found.

The fonts chosen don't really compliment each other, and the sizing makes it a bit illegible. The spacing and alignment of the main head lines seams real off. When you get up real close to the words to look at them in more detail the spacing isn't done well. This may just be because the font used is made that way, but regardless the kerning and tracking should be adjusted.
