What comes to your mind as you think of archives, retro correspondence, and the ambiance of offices somewhere in the 1900s? I’m pretty sure this will be a typewriter, a powerful symbol of creators of all times, and an important political attribute. Hasn’t any of you thought of a document typed on the yellowish paper and stamped “Confidential”?

If you consider yourself a huge lover of grunge typography, you’ll get under the charms of the typewriter fonts and their rough look. In fact, it’s pretty unfair that considering grunge typography, we often disregard typewriter style. Well, let’s right the wrong and take closer look at the versatility of such fonts: from bold vintage to modern ones.
Of course, there is a tiny chance that you never treated typewriter fonts seriously — as they may seem all the same. And again, let us convince you otherwise and show the magnificent versatility inside this genre. In fact, typewriter fonts come in multiple styles: serif, sans serif, cursive, mono and others, and masterly complemented with matching visual elements, they can become the most precious solution for your designs.

    As an early GenX’er I would also like to point out that when working on a typewriter, you had a single font size to work with. UPPER CASE and lower case. Numbers and a few symbols. No bold or italics. No headline sizes. If you are going for an authentic look, this can be good to remember. Courier was everywhere, as was its slightly more elegant cousin Prestige. For use on shipping labels and warehouse items, Orator was a great choice. Good legibility in all situations. For the modern day successors, take a look at the IBM Plex family. Also free.
