About

Merc is based on Agitator, an all-caps metal typeface designed by Wolfgang Eickhoff and published by Typoart in 1960. The letterforms carry the texture of broad brush strokes applied with deliberate speed rather than care, suggesting capacity for elegance held firmly in check. The font contains more than 460 glyphs.

Classification

All-capitals rough brush display face, digitised from Wolfgang Eickhoff's Agitator, originally published by Typoart in 1960. Over 460 glyphs.
