Rough and ready, bold and urgent.

Or playful and fun in bright colours.

The original letters were cut from actual potatoes, then scanned in and converted to vector outlines. Lighter and more heavily inked versions were used for the three variants.

Using Opentype character-substitution technology, Salvation rotates through three versions of each letter to create a naturally uneven printed effect.

Unlike hot metal type, the potatoes were cut the right way around. This produced reversed prints, which were then flipped back in Photoshop.

Originally produced for Hughes' Get Lettering activity book, the font was then extended to cover numbers, punctuation and full European language support.

Nearly 2 years in the making, LHF Black Rose Script is the perfect blend of hand-lettering and modern technology. This beautiful script is loaded with features, such as automatic ligatures, discretionary ligatures, bonus ending characters, swashes, and several alternates (302 glyphs to be exact).

You receive 3 versatile fonts to match different moods: Regular, Block Shadow (placed under Regular), and an expertly-crafted Inked version which has been distressed to look like freshly inked lettering.

One look at your designs and your clients will fall in love with Black Rose Script. And with so many carefully designed alternates to use, they'll probably think you hand-lettered it yourself!

Rough and ready artisanal lettering for your fair trade coffee shop, whiskey microbrewery or Victorian bill-poster — or, alternatively, distressed type for the cover of a hard-hitting novel set in a war zone.
Fairtrade uses opentype technology to cycle through three versions of each character, giving an authentically uneven time-worn appearance.
