Author's note

Pantagruel is a free retro display font shaped by a lopsided silhouette and soft, swollen curves. The repeated rounded forms and uneven joins make the lettering read as one decorative title block instead of a plain set of letters.

It makes sense on poster headlines, book covers, album art, packaging, and logo marks that need a bookish period feel. Invitations, event flyers, and boutique labels can use that same shape-driven character when a short line has to do the visual work on its own, without extra ornament.
