RARE BIRD SPECIMEN VI LABEL

 

Specimen VI is a refined hand by artist Aileen Fretz of Plume Calligraphy: thoroughly modern yet absolutely timeless. We have our sights set on this one becoming an instant classic.

OBSERVATIONS

Specimen VI takes its inspiration from the old world, while remaining thoroughly contemporary. It is unique while maintaining legibility.

DEFINING CHARACTERISTICS

At 2,580 characters, we dare say it is one of the most robust script fonts on the market today. The font includes extensive Opentype programming that authentically replicates Aileen’s unique handwriting pattern. As you type, watch the letters automatically adjust between connected and disconnected forms. Specimen VI also features formal titles, prepositions, social media wordart, and web navigation wordart, serif and sans serif Roman numerals, in and out-stroked letterforms at beginning and end of words, multiple alternate lowercase t cross-strokes; realistic double-letter ligatures, seamlessly connecting calligraphic letters, multiple styles of alternate capital letters, including swashes, and basic Latin encoding. Specimen VI is a typesetters’ dream.

POTENTIAL SIGHTINGS
