News for February

We’re trying to get back in the groove of offering a new antique revival face every month.  Say hello to Jim Crow, in 30 point!  This face first appeared in 1850 as Dickinson Type Foundry’s ‘Gothic Shade’.  It’s one of several antiques presented in revival castings by American Type Founders in the 20th century, and thus is fairly well known.  Charles Broad at Typefounders of Phoenix also cast it in the 1960s and this type is from his matrices, with 30 point being the largest of the three sizes he offered.


Back in stock:  Sans Serif Light in 36 point, complete with the full set of Deco Alternates.  Happy Ground Hog Day to everyone.
