    Re: Typeface database

    Thanks!  I'm working on uploading a few more.  Here is the Olympia SM9. Are these loading too big?  They look huge on my computer, but fine on the ipad.

    1970 Olympia SM9

    This one is lovely too! They look fine size-wise to me on a laptop.

    Thanks, I wasn't sure how big they were turning out.  I think I prefer the Hermes cursive to the Olympia.
    Last one for now...

    pica, but I don't know what the typeface is called.  I like it though

    Re: Typeface database

    I know I put a typing sample of this somewhere or other the other week, but i'm adding this one here because it's the same typeface as Malole's Lettera 32. It is a very tiny-looking elite, and I love it. It's the 1956 Silent-Super, the one I just fixed up. I think there Is a name for this kind of type, but I can't remember what it is... 

    Editing in now to say that it actually looks a bit cleaner on the paper than this picture indicates...

    I think the typeface might be called Congress if I am not mistaken.

    A high schooler with a lot of typewriters. That's pretty much about it.

    Yes! That's it. Thanks, z.

    And while I was looking up examples, I came upon this, which I think Spazmelda will be interested in - very odd! It looks strangely Indian: http://xoverit.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/smith-corona-script-of-vertical-nature_24.html
