America's most popular carver of inscriptions, including those at the John F. Kennedy Memorial in Arlington National Cemetery, John Benson developed Balzano (Italian for "bouncing") as an upright script whose character would come from active specific strokes and letter shapes. He was especially influenced by a page of pen-written letters by calligrapher Raphael Boguslav. As an outcome, Balzano includes thin hairlines and pronounced vertical strokes with active terminals. Open counterforms and differing letter heights add to the vigor of this 1995 Adobe Originals release. Although suitable for quick copy in larger text sizes, Balzano stands out in display screen settings.
