Redwood Pro specimen from Canada Type

A fresh digitisation of Willard Sniffin's 1929 ATF typeface Raleigh Cursive, expanded to nearly 500 glyphs including a distinctive set of swash capitals.

About

Raleigh Cursive has long featured in type history surveys and letterpress collections, and Redwood Pro brings it into the digital era with broad Latin language support. The swash capitals are described as unlike others currently available, giving the family a distinctive formal register. The glyph count and language coverage make it considerably more capable than its historical source.
