The hand lettered word ‘puzzles’ from the box cover of a 1940s set of metal “connected” puzzle pieces manufactured by the A.C. Gilbert Company was the initial typographic model, but some additions and changes were made.
Instead of the right side of the ‘P’ being a semi-circle, it was changed to a more conservative ‘’squared’ look. After drawing out all of the necessary glyphs, the overall height of the characters was extended to make the letters and numbers appear taller and narrower.
The end result is Narrow Deco JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.
Download The Fudge Font Family From The Ampersand Forest The Fudge takes his inspiration from a proud tradition of big display serif type. He's an eclectic fellow — he borrows style elements from early 20th century humanism, from the Scotch Roman tradition, and from contemporary trends. He ranges from zero contrast in his Skinny form to voluptuously high contrast in his Chonk persona, which makes him fantastic for expressiveness and massive contrast in headlines and subheads, giving your designs a dynamic voice and a great range of color. The Fudge is designed to be equal parts friendly and elegant—he'd look a treat on a theatre poster or on a package of caramels, on a book cover or on a website, in bold color or in stark black and white. As long as the subject matter is delicious—whether it's food or literature or music or… anything that requires a strong, assertive, approachable choice! Download The Fudge Font Family From
