From straightforward text faces to novelty ideas, Becker’s talent as a master sign crafter was constant in his work.
Show Card Casual JNL is one example of what is referred to as a “one stroke” alphabet (utilizing a single brush stroke in each direction to form the letter or number). Its casual look and playful charm allow for a message to be presented in an informal format that is pleasing to the eye.
The type design is available in both regular and oblique versions.
