This month we bring you two new fonts. First, the frivolous Adonis in 12 point. This face was released by American Type Founders in 1930; our type is cast from Intertype matrices.

Next we present the quasi-blackletter Washington Text in 14 point, a face that originated in 1904 with Philadelphia’s Keystone Type Foundry. The odd ‘flagged’ caps were described by that stuffiest of all typographers, Theodore L. DeVinne, as “graceful as an ox with one horn”. This one’s for you, D.K.!

Not to neglect the decorative material, here’s our latest: Border No. 288, 36 point. This classic single-element design will be versatile and useful in your shop.

Recast and back in stock: the ever-popular Sans Serif Light with Deco and Fashion Alternates, 24pt.
