RoundHead TG

[Barbara B]

We are pleased to announce the release of RoundHead TG which was lovingly crafted by forum members Michele, Christime, Larry, Bill, Mike, Fred, Gary, and Frances. Great work team!

The RoundHead TG Typeface is an antique sans serif headline font based on a historic 1883 typeface by The MacKellar, Smiths & Jordan Co. called Roundhead. Using images of Roundhead from the specimin sheet catalog (http://archive.org/details/specimensofprint00mackrich page252)for guidance, members of the Fonts and Typography Group at TalkGraphics.com, used Xara Designer software to draw the characters as well as some new characters and alternates. To create the digital typefaces the drawings were imported into FontLab.

This font if free to use on all personal and commercial work. The group has released RoundHead TG under SILOpen Font License version 1.1.

Take a look at this lovely font.

Here is something I've been experimenting with. Roundhead is a wonderful font to play around with the mold tool!
