About Copper Penny Font Family


By no means a cheap spinoff of a great original, the Copper Penny family is a completely revamped tribute to Frederic W. Goudy's venerable Copperplate Gothic. After much attention and care, this freshened-up face takes a century-overdue leap forward, anxious to take on the needs of an ever-changing design world. Even as it serves a dual role in Computer Aided Signmaking (CAS) and Desktop Publishing (DTP), this family is also brimming with an extensive range of alternates, plus a set of small uppercase characters for that traditional look, and lastly and most welcome, a viable lowercase that pays clear homage to its classic roots. This is a collection filled with changes and options, from the subtle to the radical, even a Greek range for fraternities and sororities, so if you've ever used Copperplate Gothic, then everything about the Copper Penny family will definitely be worth exploring.

About The Fontry

When foundry's were making steel and fonts were but a molten dream ... well, we don't go that far back! But that's how we came up with the name for The Fontry. Spun into existence in 1992 by James L. Stirling and Michael Gene Adkins, The Fontry owes its origins to lots and lots of years working around screenprint shops and the signmaking business, influences that translate clearly into our font designs. It stands to reason then that many of our typographic efforts reflect the needs of those industries. Not ones to wimp around with frilly type, many of our fonts exude the strength you've come to expect from any font that dares to call itself a display face. No typesetting lots of tiny text with any of our fonts! And our inspiration covers the gamut, from full-on customs to period revivals. But no matter the origins, we pride ourselves on taking care of the details, from the nudge-fussiest node positioning to the single-digit kerning adjustments. Every Fontry font has over 40 hours of work in it, and we like to think it shows. At least we hope it shows--really! So for fonts that really fill the space, we're the foundry guys you wanna try!
