Grant are you setting alot of text with this? With its angles, if its just a couple of words, a talent like you could bang this out in no time.

Oh, it's not for me... it's for a Veer customer wanting to purchase some similar. I don't have any details regarding its usage, I just do IDs for our customer service crew when they get stumped.

However, that's a good idea you had. If the customer isn't needing much more in terms of additional characters, it would be a breeze to whip up.

I would have called it Art Deco. BTW, when flipping through the Jaspert book for another post, I saw an inclined Roman called "Lunda" that has a lot in common with this sample. It was designed in 1941 by K. E. Forsberg, who designed Berling.

Thanks Mike.

I wish I had more background information on the sample. I am going to guess that it was custom drawn, based on either some historical reference like you mentioned or perhaps because the designer had a ruler handy.
