Palmore mixes tall, condensed letters with very round O and C shapes, which gives it a slightly odd, likeable rhythm. The serifs are soft and flared. CCS-Type (Creative Corner Studio) released it in 2022, and the “Greetings from Palmore” postcard in the specimen, with a line about the eighties, fits it well.
Its party trick is the ligature set. The special character page shows dozens of joined pairs, such as HH, QA, RA, RE, ZO and SS, which let you build headlines that look hand-lettered. The family comes in four weights, Light, Regular, Semibold and Bold, with over 300 glyphs.

Font pairings
Palmore pairs well with a clean, light sans. Raleway matches the spaced-out caps in the specimen. Roboto Condensed italic works for credits, as in the “Sailormen” film poster. For body text, Lora keeps a classic tone.
