Basic Font Information
|
|
|
|
Do you remember the "Life Savers" candies adds from the 50s?
|
|
That was a time when Ad Agencies actually hired Lettering Artist for they advertising text.
|
|
Before the advent of Photo Typesetting, all the text was beautifully drawn by hand.
|
|
|
|
We are going to put some love to work and bring back the Life Savers hand-lettered Typewritter/Stymie mix.
|
|
Probably drawn originally by Frazier Purdy for the Sam Marsh Studio.
|
|
Revival by Pablo Impallari, Rodrigo Fuenzalida and Brenda Gallo, spaced and kerned by iKern.
