Oh, man, that Pandora’s Box face…I know I know it, but does anybody else remember WTH that is? I don’t think I ever used that, even in my very first attempts to work with fonts and faces…
I used it on my rather font-heavy cover to The Tragedy of Rocky, the Very Picture of Horror, for “by” and “(With Illustrations by the Author)” – It’s eminently more readable than the other fonts used when it comes to smaller text. I understood that I was using four different fonts on the cover, but as a Shakespearean spoof of Rocky Horror, it all made sense, in a cosmic way – like a broadsheet advertising a play at the Globe circa 1610. Blackadder lent it that “handwritten” touch.
This looks like my very first attempt to edit a photograph on photoshop. No, take that back, it’s worse. I knew that surfaces have different angles.
Btw: what’s Red Sulf supposed to be?

That’s Blackadder ITC.
OH GOD YES. That’s what it is. BLERGH!!!!
TY, Nathan old boy!
I’ve had it in my font collection for fifteen years — I don’t think I’ve ever used it…
Bejaysus, of course, you haven’t. If you had, if there were a done-by-Nahtan cover out there with it, we’d all go on strike.
Hey, now. It’s a useable font, as long as you don’t have to use any punctuation.
