No. 43 is a reverse-contrast in the tradition of 19th century merchandise typefaces. It combines two major influences. One is writing with a broad nib pen and holding it at a very steep angle and the second is writing with a pointed nib pen.

No. 43 demands for sufficient space around it, especially in its ornamented form. It is suited for packaging, boards, signs and digital and analogue titling.
