I'm a bit of a fan. Ever since Jeremy Tankard released Bliss all those years ago and I rang him up and ordered it directly, over the phone, man to man, I've felt a kind of bond. A kind of out-of-kilter, stalking kind of bond perhaps, but a bond nevertheless. It's not that I've used his fonts much really. Would love to. Enigma is superb, Kingfisher beautiful, The Shire Types voluptuous. Aspect, well I tried Aspect recently and while I was extremely pleased with what I thought was an elegantly simple bit of work, our client plumped for something scriptier.
So the prospect of a Tankard Fat Face alone would fill me with excitement, but not satisfied with something so simple, instead Mr T gives us The Trilogy Collection: a massive set of Sans's, a tidy bundle of Egyptians and a complimentary side order of Fat Boys. All harmonised to work side by side, in multi-fontial bliss (pardon the pun).
