Thursday afternoon
Dear Alex,
I left the book by the window. There is a note on page twenty-three that I thought you would like. Bring it along on Thursday; we can finish the conversation over coffee.
See you there.

Welcome aboard the Marguerite
Robert Leuschke first drew these letters for the name on a friend’s yacht, and The Nautigal still has the manners of a boat’s stern: formal, flowing, the letters held together by long connectors. The lowercase is tiny under very tall capitals, less than half their height, so the caps do most of the talking.
There are 2 weights, Regular and Bold. Below headline size the Bold is the one to reach for. Latin with Central European and Vietnamese accents.
Set a name in it. A monogram, a wedding place card, the back of your own boat if you happen to have one.
