new typeface a week typeface up "maple" by Phil

...The typeface is a mash up of metrostyle & times...if I remember correctly! It's a bit clunky, a bit unfinished and a bit prickly...yes, just like the band....

new typefaceaweek - "Christopher smith"

http://typefaceaweek.blogspot.com/2009/04/13-christopher-smith.html

A new typeface to kick off our "Claypots" work - due to the unending source of "things" from the steading (the previous owner left EVERYTHING) - we will be making a lot of work from the finds we uncover...
As a mark of respect, we thought it best to put up "young Christopher Smith's" handwriting - found and made from an old primary school jotter...

Phil had also showcased the "raw file" (scan of a page) at the OKN talk he did - so if anyone is watching that was there - here's the finished thing!
