New Font: BigBlok
A great many years ago when working in game publishing I had a real fascination with doing titles in a strong, super-bold font called Bolt Bold. The truth is I rather overused it. In doing some research I find it on more than a dozen different game books I wrote in the early 80s, all quite collectable and out of print today.
New Font: Walter Crane
We’ve been working on developing a whole collection of fonts and graphics based on the works of Walter Crane. We’ve already produced the Crane Gothic font based on one example of his lettering, and a collection based on his illustrated edition of The Baby’s Aesop. Now we offer our newest addition to the collection, a new font simply titled Walter Crane and based on a sample of his lettering which falls into the category of fairy book lettering like our Folkard and Rackhamfonts. Interestingly, unlike most of Crane’s other lettering, which is very much in an arts and crafts style, the samples on which this font is based are more traditional and calligraphic in style.
You can download and try the demo version of Walter Crane in TrueType format for Mac or PC. The full version of the font is available from our ordering site.
