Wallpaper 1920x1200 created with Jim Spieces heavy display face »Samson Classic«.
Samson Classic SG
Here is another classic design by Robert Hunter Middleton for the Ludow Foundry in 1940.
Samson Classic is a very heavy display face with a wonderful medley of thick-and-thins. Developed just before World War II, this sturdy, chunky style gained popularity in newspaper advertising work. It appears as though it was created using a broad pen and retains the angled stroke endings.
The goal for this project was to create a promotional item that featured a classic typeface.
Another requirement was that the design needed to interpret a saying from Poor Richard’s Almanac using the typeface being featured, in this case, Sabon.
These are soaps I made using scraps (hence the unusual assortment of colors). I needed them to make a multi-cavity mold since I decided to reopen my Soap Lab shop. The colors are neat, though. Maybe I should offer some color options in my shop?
esa es la tapa de mi libro, un libro que voy a hacer para la facultad y seguramente haga unas copias mas para regalarle a la gente que yo considere linda (?) foa e90a ´r}{
Es para presentar a mi tipografia... que creo se va a llamar igual que el libro, todavia no lo decidi
Esta basada en circulos, por eso tantos circulos (?)
I used a template to trace the outline of the letters then cut the shapes freehand. This is an 8.5" x 11" piece of card stock.
More details about this on my blog.
Caractères d'imprimerie
En typographie, un caractère ou type (mobile, typographique ou d'imprimerie) est une petite pièce, généralement en plomb typographique, destinée à recevoir de l'encre grasse avant d'être pressée sur un support, généralement en papier, pour y laisser son empreinte. Les très gros caractères mobiles peuvent être faits de bois.
Printing characters
In typography, character or kind (mobile, typographical or printing) is a small piece, usually type metal for receiving the greasy ink before being pressed on a medium, usually paper, to leave there its footprint. Very large characters or types can be made of wood.
#2 in my Southern California "apartment typography" series. No, they won't all be yellow/orange. But this one seemed to fit.

I used pourable silicone to make this mold. I love that stuff! It's so sensitive that you can even see the tape I used to create the master. That could have been a bad thing, but luckily I was neat.
