Felt Tip Senior specimen from Mark Simonson

A facsimile of Mark Simonson's father's handwriting, originally made as a personal gift before its public release.

About

Felt Tip Senior reproduces the handwriting of Simonson's father, an influence on his own hand seen in Felt Tip Roman. The mostly-capitals writing style leaves the lowercase with some unusual, idiosyncratic forms. It began life as a private gift in 1995 under the name Leroy Lettering, renamed before release to avoid confusion with an existing lettering-tool brand.

Classification

A digitised facsimile of a family member's handwriting, kept in script for the same reason as Felt Tip Roman.
