Own a collection of rare historical wood type fonts salvaged from the past with The Wood Type Revival Bundle. 

In the days before digital type, letters were crafted by hand, carved into wood blocks, and then pressed onto paper using a letterpress.

These fonts have slowly vanished into garages, attics, warehouses, dumpsters, and even been used as firewood!

  • Ten rare historic fonts collected from around the globe (OTF)
  • One pack of woodblock ornaments (EPS) and one pack of woodblock textures (Bitmap TIFF).
  • Includes regular and damaged versions of fonts (natural knicks, scratches, and dings).
  • Bold and fanciful designs created to stand out to your audience.
  • Extended license for unlimited projects.

Number of fonts: 24

File Type: OTF versions of all fonts

File Size: 31 KB

License Type: Extended version

Foundry: Matt Braun

Fonts Designed to Grab Your Eyeballs

What I love about The Wood Type Revival Bundle is that each of the ten fonts was chosen for very specific reasons.

    1. Each font is designed to grab viewers eyeballs and make them pay attention to their elaborate and bold designs.
    2. Matt Braun printed each wood font on his trusty Vandercook proof press. That means each font has authentic imperfections true to the original piece. 
    3. You get a diverse mix of fonts including gothic, Grecian, chromatic, script, and more. So these fonts will work on tons of projects.

Made from Authentic Wood Type

A lot of fonts out there aren't really authentic wood type. They're inspired by wood type and then textured.

That's great but there's something special about getting a collection of fonts that are one degree away from the original ink pressed on paper.

Each font in the pack comes with its own story.

These pieces were found in garages, attics, warehouses, eBay auctions, and donated by collectors who didn't want to see these historical fonts disappear.

Extended License

Matt has been kind enough to offer an extended license on this collection of fonts. That means when you buy the pack you can use the fonts on as many projects as you want! 

With these many fonts and the extended license, this pack is sure to pay for itself in a single client project!

Don't Miss Out. Grab the Deal Now!

Grab The Wood Type Revival Bundle now and have your own little slice of wood type history. 

Note: This is a preservation of existing woodblock type. As a result character sets are limited to what was included in the original historic set. This means that character sets do not include complete Latin language support but may include unique extras like outlines, fillers, ornaments, fractions, etc.

    Exactly what I was looking for

    Working on a project set in the Old West and I needed some distressed wood type. This was the right mix of fonts at a good price.

    Just What I Was Looking For

    I am working on a special gift for my wife for Christmas and I spent some time going thru my massive font collection in search of the perfect combination of Wood Type fonts for this poster. Nothing was really jumping out at me, so I decided to check out my favorite places online to see if they have something. Perhaps someone should reach out to Bono and let him know about retrosupply.co, cuz I found what I was looking for!

    Excellent Bundle

    I purchased this bundle earlier this week and already used them on three projects. Exactly what I was looking for!!! An excellent bundle for really authentic vintage fonts. I'd buy it again, it's that good!

    The Warmth of Wood

    Happy to stash my font 'drawer' with the handmade history that is wood type. Its a beautiful touch to have both the clean & distressed versions, with some tasty textures & ornaments thrown in. Looking forward to some serious type play, in digital letterpress land :))
