Meet Mister Chank Diesel, Tripod's Travelling Font Salesman. Chances are you've seen Chank's work (or read up on his history). Disney used Chank's Mr. Frisky font in the posters for James and the Giant Peach. For all you gin drinkers, Chank did a font for Tanqueray, and if you've ever been to Taco Bell, Chank's handiwork was all over your taco wrappers.
Call him crazed or call him genius, but call him Chank Diesel, Travelling Font Salesman extraordinaire.
