About
Old Abe takes its forms directly from historical cigar label lettering, a genre known for its ornate, tightly crafted decorative capitals. The family ships as two coordinated fonts – Regular and Outline – each including alternates, full punctuation and accented characters. The pairing is well suited to period-themed packaging, branding and headline work.
