A richly textured hand-lettered display face drawn from Richard Rosenblum's 1960s illustration work, digitised from the Photo-Lettering archive by Susana Carvalho in 2011.
About
Originally adapted for Photo-Lettering, Inc. in the early 1960s, Chicamakomiko reflects the loose, characterful line work that made Rosenblum's drawings a fixture in publications such as McCall's and numerous children's books of the era. The face carries genuine illustrative texture and an informal energy that extends its usefulness beyond novelty applications. Susana Carvalho's 2011 digitisation produced a full character set covering broad Latin language support.
Classification
An irregular, texture-rich hand-lettered display face derived from Richard Rosenblum's line-art illustration style, adapted from Photo-Lettering Inc. originals. Its organic, sketched character and deliberate irreverence place it firmly in the expressive display category.
