Sinclair
Letterhead Fonts · John Studden

A bold late-1800s display face designed for decorative headline work, sold as a two-font set pairing standard letterforms with a companion words font.
About
The design draws on Victorian-era lettering traditions, with thick strokes intended to accommodate bevel effects or internal ornamentation. The set includes Sinclair Regular, which features four alternate characters, and Sinclair Words, a pictographic font that maps individual keystrokes to preset phrases. It is aimed at designers working in period-style or Americana-themed projects.
Classification
Bold, decorative lettering in a late 19th-century American style, designed for headline use with space for bevel effects and ornamentation inside the letterforms — characteristic of Victorian-era wood type display faces.
