Louis specimen from Canada Type

A digital revival and three-variant expansion of Louis Oppenheim's 1927 display face Fanfare, redrawn by Rod MacDonald.

About

Louis reproduces Oppenheim's original Fanfare design and adds alternates beyond those included in the source material. Canada Type extended the family into three distinct subfamilies: a standard version, a soft-cornered variant and a woodcut-textured cut. All three fonts support the majority of Latin languages.
