FontPool: Bold, Condensed, and wet all over
I guess this Unzipped post has to be shared!

… the Belgian/Dutch FontShop franchise that is spearheading cutting-edge typographic research. We are proud to present to you revolutionary innovations in inflatable, wet, adhesive and edible type, and invite you to discover… FontPool.
The FontPool concept has been thoroughly tested according to the most demanding scientific requisites – through empirical research which produced measurable and repeatable results. Both female and male test subjects were used, ranging from one to eleven years old – a representative cross section of the juvenile population. What follows is a photographic – dare we add ‘historic’? – document of FontPool. Enjoy!
A lot more splashy pics on Unzipped:

And it gets even better — as of today FontPool officially is a contest with which you can win one of ten FontBooks. Check the rules later this afternoon/evening.

Sorry, the contest is only open to Benelux residents. :^(

Oh really? Doesn’t say so anywhere on Unzipped, does it?
No holidays for me anyway.
Yves, where are you? I think the Quizes need to be updated/refreshed.
And – I’m missing the (x)es and your comments here and there.

The rules were added a little later because we had to decide if we’d limit the contest to the Benelux or not. We are giving away ten FontBooks after all.
As for my apparent absence — I’m in a major transition period. Thing’s will improve after the switch on August 1st. ;^)
