Dai Vernon was designed by Andrew Leman, Dai Vernon and published by E-phemera. Dai Vernon contains 2 styles and family package options.  

DaiVernon is based on the handwriting of card magician extraordinaire Dai Vernon.

Known as 'The Professor', Vernon was a beloved expert in sleight-of-hand and card magic. These fonts are based on the penmanship in his notebooks from the 1920s, which feature almost no lowercase letters. DaiVernon Direct is based on what appears to be his hastier style, while DaiVernon Misdirect is based on his neater hand.

Numerous OpenType bonus glyphs, contextual alternates and discretionary ligatures help to create the feel of his handwriting.

Thanks go to Michael Albright, David Ben, and Gene Matsuura for helping to provide access to Vernon's notebooks.
