Helvetica

I sat down at the kitchen table to pay bills today and watched a video I found on Netflix called "Helvetica". It is a documentary on the font, including history and archives, plus interviews with many of the people that made it happen. Lots of signs in the video, of course. And, there are lots of interviews with people not so content to use Helvetica. I found it very interesting from start to finish.

Mike I caught that one on Netflix as well. There is another one that was pretty interesting called Art and Copy. You guys might find it a good flix

Finally! A Sharpie that writes in Helvetica! Now if I could just find a brush that did a great script.

Yep, when you find that Bob Behounek pen, please post the link here. Everyone would love to get one.

I like the "BEFORE" picture. . .it has more character and personality.
