Hi folks- I've got a little design project coming up and I need some very 1960s flavored fonts. I'd appreciate any ideas for places to find some free fonts. Hanford? Thanks all, |

I like Font Diner's pay stuff a lot, but they have a couple of good free fonts, too: Chank's got some neat stuff, but I don't know if any of it's particularly retro: Rotodesign has some neat ones, the description for Moto always makes me giggle. I'm easy that way: http://www.rotodesign.com/fonts/index.html I'm eager to see what other people come up with! |

"Fontazm" has lots of goofy theme fonts for free... The site is poorly laid out, so be sure to scroll down after you click on a letter at the bottom, and check out any 2nd or 3rd pages. |

http://www.larabiefonts.com/ has a good variety and the site seems to work pretty well. I use a font called Deftone Stylus from them for the "Hanford Lemoore's" text on the main page. It's free. That site has a bunch of stuff free, but not all of it's great. I'm not very good at matching decades to fonts, so i'm not sure what "1960s" fonts is, but I use Futura for most of my 1950s looking stuff. It's not free, but you may want to search for a free knock-off. All of my headline fonts that look Tiki are hand-done in Photoshop, so there's not much help there. Hope that helps, Hanford |
