    Default Calaveras

    Rather overshadowed by Halloween, All Saints' Day is widely celebrated in the Spanish-speaking world.
    Here's a link to two fonts, both called Calaveras (one is a dingbat), which means skulls in Spanish. (that's Calaveras, not dingbat)

    Take care, Mike

    Thanks for sharing these links Bob

    I find it interesting learning about different holidays and customs around the world. What is the meaning of the skulls?

    Day of the Dead is to honor relatives and friends that have died. It began in Mexico over 3000 years ago and coincides with All Saints Day and All Souls day in other catholic countries.
