MyFonts’ review: Photographer and type designer Michael Hagemann founded FontMesa in 2000. He specializes in heart-warming styles of the old west and fonts for sign lettering, all at great prices. Some fonts are classic Italian (Tuscan) and French revivals while others were created from a sample of lettering in old documents. In Rodeo Clown and many others, FontMesa adds an original lower-case if the original font had none. The wonderful Maverick’s Luck has multiple versions intended for layering in different colors. FontMesa continues to research and find long-lost type from the 1800s, then revive them painstakingly (no automatic scans) into the digital world where they will never be forgotten.

Biography

Founded in 2000 by photographer and type designer Michael Hagemann, FontMesa has specialized in creating type styles of the old west and fonts for sign lettering. Some fonts are classic Italian (Tuscan) and French revivals with new lowercase letters added while others were created from a small sample of letters found on old documents never intended to be a complete font.

FontMesa continues to research and find old, long lost type from the 1800s, then revive them into the digital world where they will never be forgotten. With a FontMesa font you can be assured of a quality product; all fonts are drawn and kerned by hand and never created by automatic scanning methods.
