Publisher: Three Islands PressJohn Quincy Adams, sixth President of the United States, didn't hit his stride till he 'd left that lofty workplace. It was during his lots of years in Congress that he guaranteed his tradition-- not least since of his long, skillful oratory opposing slavery. His speeches, in reality, won him the label "Old Guy Eloquent." So when I chose to mimic Adams's penmanship in his famous diary (which he kept for nearly 70 years), it seemed fitting to call the typeface by that name. I concentrated on his handwriting from about 1810, when he was Ambassador to Russia, but likewise consulted pages from later years. Old Male Eloquent is our first historic penmanship typeface with both regular and vibrant weights. OpenType features consist of alternate uppercase characters, numerous ligatures, old-style and lining figures, and Central/Eastern European alphabets-- almost 800 glyphs in all.
