On the silver screen at the Kijkhuis cinema in Leiden, a clock is shown before the film starts; it’s 21:12, with an obliquely angled 1 in the second digit in 21 but a right-angled one in 12 (and a rift-angled and an oblique one in 11 the minute before). Hey, that’s a palindrome!
Seen at the Kijkhuis yesterday: a typeface with two different ⟨1⟩’s. (Also: Rietland (2025); it’s good!)
