Discus: A new Creation full of Action, Freshness and Elegance

When one works on books about slabs, stencils, shadows, and scripts, one needs a lot of examples around. Like, when Louise Fili was working on Scripts, she picked up this specimen of Martin Wilke’s Discus (1938) for Stempel. And now we must discuss the naming of Discus: It was originally called Diskus. A face worth spinning around and heaving as far as you can. From the collection of Louise Fili.
