The author, Nick Curtis says about his font: “Here’s a revival of an old favorite of mine, Gillies Gothic Bold, bolder and cleaner than the original. Its sweeping lines says it’s on the move, although perhaps at a much slower pace that we’re use to today. Named in honor of the great streamlined travel trailer.”
