Spring 2012: Get Your Free Flowers!!!

Thursday, March 1st, 2012 | Designers, Education, Flowers, Seasonal | No Comments

spring 2012 free flowers white yellow purple

Spring has officially sprung! In honor of Spring 2012 we wanted to share these free flowers with you.

These are not those flowers you see locked up in cages with droopy stalks and brown spots with sad Sarah McLauchlin music playing in the background. These are American bred, bald eagle flying, meat and potatoes eating carnivorous flowers imported from Detroit.

These are America’s free flowers that we are sharing with you … absolutely free!

Flowers much like Frederic Goudy (RIP) may have picked for his family when divinely interpreting the world’s greatest font (and America’s Official Font) Copperplate Gothic Bold.

Not only are these spring flowers free, these flowers need to be shared. So take home your flowers, post proudly on your Facebook page, tweet as loud as you can, fill the blogosphere with flowers and continue to spread Copperplate Gothic Bold.

New Hampshire Is Part of America!!!

Saturday, June 25th, 2011 | Seasonal, Travel | No Comments

It’s been many years since our last visit to New Hampshire. Last time we were almost run off Mount Washington in the 80′s by a driver who had comic sans bumper stickers plastered to their car.

Lucky for us we made itto the top in our Dodge full sized van, they were not so lucky and perished in a fiery autocrash that consumed the dodge caravan they were driving and every last bit of their comic sans bumper stickers adhered to the fake plastic wood paneling on the vehicle. In fact, police stated they might have lived if not for the flammable comic sans stickers.

We are happy to report that the fine residents of New Hampshire in Manchester are alive and well and in much better shape than the last time we visited. It’s appropriate we found this sighting at the Lands End store in Manchester. You’ll notice that Outlet is prominently featured in the strongest font ever made, Copperplate Gothic Bold.

We hope the fine folks at Lands End realize that the phenomenal sales they are receiving at this store are tied to their use of Copperplate Gothic Bold on their store signage. We believe this will lead to the branding for Lands End being converted to CGB. It fits the brand: strength, America, and nature all nuanced in a font. It’s also fitting because the upper part of New Hampshire just drops off into nothing, truly the lands end. Past the upper part of New Hampshire is a desolate place jealous and fearful and what CGB represents.

Driving we noticed these stores had no business or cars out front:

Pet Smart? No CGB!!!
Best Buy? No CGB!!!
Best Western? No CGB!!!
Forever 21? No CGB!!!

Thank you New Hampshire for your embracing of CGB. Even though you are north, Live Free or Die is alive through the use of CGB. Don’t die, live free, CGB!!!

A Genuine Certified Copperplate Gothic Bowl of Gold!

St. Patricks Day is right around the corner and wouldn’t you know it that Copperplate Gothic Bold is as Irish as it gets. So much so that we created a genuine, certified, 100% pure Copperplate Gothic Gold graphic.

Nothing says “way-to-go-vegan-designer-friend” more so than a full pot o’ Copperplate Gold. Reward your employees with a graphic of a pot o’ Copperplate Gothic Gold. Answer the perennial question of “Where da gold at?” with this graphic.

It’s no secret that gold prices are at an all-time high, we know it’s tied to Copperplate Gothic Bold usage. This graphic is direct proof of why gold prices are so high.  As usage of Copperplate Gothic Bold goes up, this pot o’ gold fills up.

So keep on using Copperplate Gothic Bold, it is after all the official font of St. Patricks day, and let’s see what incredibly good things we can do together!
