About
Hannibal was created by Jim Rimmer for a limited edition printing of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, named after Mark Twain's hometown in Missouri. It holds the distinction of being the first new face made for the Monotype composition caster in over 25 years, and the only homemade face ever produced for that machine. The forms carry recognisable Rimmer traits alongside clear deco influences.
