ABOUT







Richard Weber

Amerian designer of the bubblegum font Papageno (Bauersche Giesserei, 1958). Gumball (2005, Canada Type) is a digitization of this font. Canada Type writes: It was our designer's duty to inform you of your stolen past. So we made Gumball. It is still hard for us to swallow: These letters are the typographical parallel of Khrushschev, Nixon, deGaulle, Batista, Kerouac, Capote, Levi-Strauss, Peter Gunn, Bridge on the River Kwai, Project Mercury, and three-cent stamps.
