<p>“Happy Time” was popularized in Germany in the 1960s from <a href="http://meinsammelsuriumblog.wordpress.com/2019/03/16/peter-moesser-happy-time-lotto-time-mit-peter-moessers-music-1966/">being played</a> while lottery numbers were chosen from a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lottery_machine">lottery machine</a> on TV – hence the design’s number jumble and shape of the <em>glücksschwein</em> (lucky pig).</p>

<p>While the pile of numerals looks random at first, there are a few cleverly placed glyphs to emulate pieces of the pig’s anatomy: a sideways 8 and 3 for a snout and eyes, respectively, rotated 7 for an ear, and a 6 for a curly tail.</p><br/><a href="https://fontsinuse.com/uses/30036/peter-moesser-s-music-happy-time-b-w-clipper-"><img src="https://assets.fontsinuse.com/static/use-media-items/103/102049/upto-700xauto/5dfe52d3/9480295443_258baba7a2_b.jpeg"/></a><br/><br/><i><b>Source:&nbsp;<span class="fiu-attribution__sourceUrl"><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/khiltscher/9480295443/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.flickr.com</a></span>&nbsp;</b><span>License: <span class="fiu-attribution__license">All Rights Reserved</span><span>. </span></span></i><br/><br/>This post was originally published at <a href="https://fontsinuse.com/uses/30036/peter-moesser-s-music-happy-time-b-w-clipper-">Fonts In Use</a><hr/>]]></description>
