Just some stuff you might be wondering about this place.

Why "The Black Hand?"


Prior to his arrival in England, Luca sent Tommy Shelby a Christmas card with a Black Hand pictured on it. He also has a tattoo of the same symbol on his right hand/wrist. The real Mafia used to (still does?) send these "calling cards" as a threat, so it's not something made up for the show.

At any rate, it seemed like a good title for this place. It should be noted, however, that I almost named it Matchstick Man, because Luca almost always has a matchstick in his mouth or hand, like a toothpick.



Credits

The layout was created with the aid of picture frame brushes from Obsessed. Most Luca images are my screen captures, available in the Adrien Brody Gallery, other random images were snagged from Google (such as the first and last photos of Luca in the header).

Fonts

"The Black Hand," and page headings are Great Vibes. "Luca Changretta fanlisting" in the header is Clarendon Condensed, which I distressed to look more like the Peaky Blinder logo. Navigation, and most subheadings are also Clarendon Condensed. Main content text is Brawler.

Great Vibes and Brawler are from Google Fonts. Text on codes is wendy, available in the pixel font section of DaFont.com. I'm not sure where Clarendon came from, as it's been on my computer. I prepared it for use here with Font Squirrel's Webfont Generator.
