I thought about alerting the Walker design department to this bumpersticker I saw on a truck (right next to a “Buy a Gun” sticker) on my way in to work the other morning:

At first glance, it looks like an unauthorized use of the Walker typeface, a proprietary font designed by Matthew Carter. Later, in the design studio I found this, wondering if maybe the design department was in cahoots:

The plastic deer, I later learned, will become part of a seasonal window display in the Walker Shop, and the bumpersticker was actually referring to Walker hunting dogs.
