Cannonball FONT Download
Designer: Gert Wiescher
Publisher: Wiescher Design
Cannonball is derived from a Jazz record-sleeve for
Cannonball Adderley. I think it is from the sixties or seventies of last century. The type is very typical for that time and I tried to be as true to the original design as possible. I had to add lots of letters, cyphers and other parts of the font with intuition. There are upper-case letters only, on the lowercase keys I put some embellishing swings to go along with the design. I hope you like it. The folks at »What the font« told me that the name of the original font is called »Motter Ombra« by Othmar Motter (pre-1980), too bad I did not know that, it would have saved me the work of doing this font. But they also tell me, that mine is quite different to the original, so I just keep it up for sale anyway.
