Mercedes1937 FONT Download

There is an interesting story about this vintage professional Mercedes typewriter I've used to make this font. My grandfather, who was a Yugoslavian partisan during the WWII captured it from a Wehrmacht command building during an attack, and he kept it in a perfect shape for so many years. After I inherited it, I wanted to share it's uniqueness (as well as it's story).
I've intentionally kept it in it's original condition - I haven't replaced the ribbon that was some 34 years old (or more) before sampling the font, and it turned out really nice.
One more important thing - I have used ONLY it's original set of characters (Latin with some Balkan-based letters).
With it's untouched originality and uniqueness it fits to our modern culture perfectly. There are no compromises here - there are no popular @,#,$ and other characters you would expect in a font. You will get EXACTLY what's on this genuine "Mercedes" typewriter with so much soul.
