About the family


Black Bart is a beefy wood type–inspired display face built for loud headlines, bold posters, and vintage-flavored branding. Its chunky, confident forms channel classic showcard and western-era typography with a modern, punchy weight that holds up beautifully in large sizes. Set it in ALL CAPS for maximum authority, lean into unicase for quirky character, or mix both for a rowdy, attention-grabbing voice. Black Bart includes a stash of OpenType features designed to keep your typography feeling handcrafted and less repetitive. Stylistic alternates provide variations for select unicase letters (including A/a, E, N, R) along with handy ligatures for common words like OF, THE, and AND, plus a few starting-letter options for extra personality. Contextual alternates expand the options further by swapping in alternate treatments for those word ligatures and introducing wilder swash variants for letters like Q, V, W, and Y when you want a more flamboyant, poster-ready flourish. Perfect for western graphics, vintage packaging, band posters, editorial headlines, apparel, signage, event branding, bar and restaurant identities, and any project that wants bold wood type energy with playful typographic tricks built in.

About Fontasmic

Fontasmic is a type foundry born from a deep affection for the tactile soul of wood type, the spontaneous beauty of ephemeral design, and the charm of typography that refuses to follow the rules. Each Fontasmic creation celebrates the unpredictable—where classic craftsmanship meets a restless curiosity for the offbeat and the obscure. Drawing inspiration from vintage posters, forgotten sign painting traditions, and the imperfect textures of print history, Fontasmic channels the spirit of typographic exploration into every curve and counter. With a collection that thrives on character and quirk, the foundry embraces both the wild and the refined—fonts that carry stories, personalities, and a hint of rebellion. Whether bold and brash or subtle and strange, Fontasmic typefaces are made for designers who seek more than letters on a page—they seek emotion, history, and the spark of the unexpected.
