Author's note

DK Carte Blanche by David Kerkhoff is a free old-school decorative display font with towering letters, fine hairlines, and broad strokes filled with diagonal hatching. Small curls and wandering curves give it a mischievous elegance.

On confectionery packaging, its striped fills can echo engraved labels and turn a product name into part of the illustration. Book covers and theater posters can use the tall, eccentric forms to suggest a curious Victorian sideshow or storybook world. The looping ornaments also suit invitations for cabaret, circus, and other events with a knowingly theatrical theme.
