Walter Heberling German handletterer who wrote Basic Lettering, and elements of composition, color harmony, gilding, embossing-processes (1922). Mike Jackson writes: W.A. Heberling was the instructor of Sign, Scene, and Pictorial Painting at the Mooseheart Vocational Institute in Mooseheart, IL. This book was also used as a textbook, taking beginners through the basics right up to painted pictorial billboards. His work from 1925 inspired Nick Curtis to digitize Fortune Cookie (2007) and Eulalie NF (2009). Heberling Casual NF (2002, Nick Curtis) is based on a single-stroke pen font from Heberling's 1922 book. All these fonts are quirky and almost Victorian.
