Oh, I'd say that's a pretty good match, Fred.

Dan X. Solo has been "reviving" typefaces for close to 20 years. I think he began with Dover clipart Publications, actually working for them, restoring and assembling typefaces from very old Royalty Free clipart where fonts were shown.

Which strongly suggests to us that in the future if we find a nice font, we look it up to see whether it's already been done. The Burgeon fonts was destined to be a winner because the catalog was so bloody obscure. On the other hand, Morning Glory and Round Head were both from a 1904 Linotype specimen book, and surely others according to Dan's attribution.


It's still Public Domain and this group came by our tracings honestly and independently of Dan's work.

I'd say finish it. We always planned to give it away, while Dan at Solofonts wants $20 for his version.
