ABOUT







Fritz L. Amberger

Artist and printer, 1899-1950, who was based in New York City. He designed Bam-Stencil in 1937 for Ruttle, Shaw and Wetherill. Mac McGrew: Bam-Stencil was designed by F. L. Amberger and reportedly cut by Ruttle, Shaw&Wetherill, a Philadelphia typographic firm, about 1937. It follows the general style of Corvin us (Glamour) Bold, but is heavier and has stencil-like breaks in the strokes. No lowercase was made.
