A revival of Hamilton's Teniers wood type, offered in two weights with italics and sprayed stroke alternates for period-appropriate poster lettering.

About

Based on Teniers, one of the more popular wood type faces of the 19th century, this revival retains the retro character of the original while modifying the lowercase for a slightly more contemporary feel. Two weights ship with matching italics, and OpenType Stylistic Alternates or Swash features unlock sprayed stroke variants for letters including F, H, P, U and others. Best suited to posters, display titles and branding that wants a convincing vintage register.

Classification

A revival of Hamilton's Teniers, a 19th-century wood type design, with display proportions and bold character suited to poster and titling work. Categorised as display due to its heritage in large-scale wood type printing.
