Also known as Schoolbook. 900+ glyphs.

After Linn Boyd Benton’s and Morris Fuller Benton’s 1894 lower contrast version of Scotch Modern, Didone.

The part of the large project on revival and further development (by drawing many additional glyphs) of the 20th century’s typewriters’ fonts.

And especially the most famous, versatile and beautiful typewriter: IBM Selectric’s golfball fonts, lost for the civilization for many decades after ‘80s, not being created since then in digital vector form.

This new sub-project started in July 2018 for the restoration of the most beautiful classical typefaces, used during the 20th century on the extremely rare now IBM Selectric Composer typewriters / desktop publishing systems.

Together with Nick Hamze and the Right Reverend Theodore Munk, the collectors of old typewriters.

IBM showed the perfect taste by developing these best historical book typefaces of the human civilization for typewriters. So people could type then using both the real book faces, and the famous classical ones.

[bgrisbdnoe] Download We The People Fonts Family From K-Type

Designed by Keith Bates, We The People is a blackletter and historical font family. This typeface has three styles and was published by K-Type . Download We The People Fonts Family From K-Type This typeface is extrapolated from the ‘We the People’ calligraphy of the handwritten US Constitution Preamble which employed a style based on German Text and Square Text exemplars from George Bickham’s penmanship copy-books, the most celebrated being ‘The Universal Penman’ published in 1743. The original Constitution document was transcribed onto parchment by Jacob Shallus, a Pennsylvania Assistant Clerk, over a weekend in 1787.

[bzfig] Download TT Ricordi Allegria fonts from Typetype

Designed by Antonina Zhulkova and TypeType Team, TT Ricordi Allegria is a display sans font family. This typeface has three styles and was published by Typetype . TT Ricordi Allegria TT Ricordi Allegria is a sleek and intelligent contemporary Florentine grotesque inspired by the half-erased lettering in Basilica di Santa Croce, Florence. TT Ricordi Allegria was drawn by Antonina Zhulkova and reflects in its graphics the transitional stage between the classic serif with varying proportions, gravitating towards the Roman capital type, and the Florentine sans serif. The font is characterized by variability in the proportions of characters, contrast between strokes, wedge-shaped triangular characters, and the absence of traditional serifs.

The drawing of the characters from the main set is strict, thanks to wh...

[rrjltothnu] Download Mikan Fonts Family From Hanoded

Designed by David Kerkhoff, Mikan is a hand display font family. This typeface has four styles and was published by Hanoded . Download Mikan Fonts Family From Hanoded A couple of years ago, I walked the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trail in Japan. At the start of the walk, I stayed in a nice guesthouse in Tanabe city, which lies in Wakayama prefecture. I wouldn’t mention all of this, if it didn’t have something to do with the font name: Wakayama prefecture is THE mandarin orange ( Mikan ) growing area of Japan and the owner of the guesthouse had just picked a bagful of mikan, which he shared with me. So, I had to think of that when I made this font. Mikan is a nice, rounded family of fonts. Both styles come with alternative a’s (and accented a’s), which some people prefer for Children’s books.
