Blackstone Dragons,
magic, the Middle Ages, and all that is gothic was the inspiration
for this design. I originally inked all of the characters by
hand and submitted the full set to the the 1988 Chartpak Typeface
Design Competition and actually won the contest along with
10 other winners. Blackstone was reproduced
as Chartpak's "Designer Series" tranfer lettering sheets
(anyone remeber those?). I spent a few months digitizing the
originals and the font is now available in Postscript and TrueType
with additional characters and dingbats. Blackstone also
has a number of interesting alternate characters. Check out the
2004 addition to the family: Blackstone X.
