Hi folks;

I was perusing the latest Fonthous catalog and came across a face
called "Goudy Stout."

It was done by Castle Systems, and was based on Goudy's 1939
Blackletter design.

I could have swarn that I've seen a similar face in the public
domain for Type 1 Macs.
 
It is kinda like Gadzookz, a new PD face; it's kinda like that
face David Rakowski did that looks like "Bodini after 6-7 beers."
(whatever it's called) 
But it is a heavier weight.

The Q is unique, as well as the W; looks like Ashley Crawford a bit.
(Rakowski has also done a version of this face).

Another face I am looking for in PD or commercial is one that
Country Kitchen has used in it's ads; the unique feature is that the
lower cased "t" looks like a baby formula bottle. It is again a
blackface/title face; heavier than usual, not germanic.



Thanks


Jim Rinaldo
