As one of the most distinguished lettering artists of the 20th century, Meyer "Dave" Davison's biggest contribution to the American visual landscape is probably Davison Spencerian. The alphabet made its very first appearance in Photo-Lettering's 1946 brochure and stays a criteria of the ornamental script category. Thanks to the competent hands of Mitja Miklavčič and the steadfast eyes of House Industries designers Ben Barber and Ken Kiel, we have maintained the grace and accuracy of Davison's masterwork in this faithfully-rendered digital incarnation. From automobile exhaust accessories and pirate-themed wedding event invites to New Orleans sissy bounce hip-hop CD covers and upmarket bivalve ambrosia packaging, Davison Spencerian offers sober sophistication and exceptional flexibility.
