1913 Typewriter

Font designed after the face of a few characters of a real old 1913 small portable typewriter.

It looks like those early typescripts, rough, irregular and eroded, meaningful of mitycal famous authors, such as Hemingway, as well as “ serie noire ” movies or anonymous state employee working in a gloomy Kafka’s office. It is a complete alphabetic full font. It is used as variously as web-site titles, posters design or books editing.

It may be preferable, if possible, when printing, to choose a pale color a little rather than condensed - dark grey instead of heavy black, for example - to give the best appearance and take benefit from the full details. The old typewriter character size is 11 to 12 points, but this font easily supports enlargement.
