About this typeface:
It’s time to shake it up daddio! Wrap your chilly fingers around this ultra cool swingin’ typeface! Cocktail Shaker is a swanky retro connecting script born out of 1950s lounge culture. Often referred to as the ‘googie’ look, Cocktail Shaker blends a casual loungy script with clean readability and a twist of modern Atomic Age charm. Several alternate characters are included in this typeface and it is also available in the convenient cross-platform OpenType format.
About the designer:
With over 330 typefaces to his credit, Stuart Sandler has solidly established a reputation as the premier designer of retro display typography inspired by 1950s popular culture. In addition to winning Minneapolis’ The Show for the last three year consecutively, he also has several typeface designs distributed by ITC Fonts, Bitstream, Agfa Monotype and his own Font Diner foundry. Between each font release, Stuart is out shooting photographs of old car dashboards and scouring dusty antique shops (the ones that smell like dad’s old army uniform), and jet-setting to spots all across America where fifties design still stands proudly. With a library of vintage periodicals and a host of ephemera, he’s often found pouring over his collection to recapture the design sense and style of the past. This research proves invaluable to him as he crafts new ‘old’ typefaces.
