Hannes von D?hren – aka HVD Fonts – has a number of interesting faces here at MyFonts, but among his newest, the four-weight brush script Reklame is special. Based on hand-lettered advertising of the 1940s and ’50s, Reklame – which includes OpenType support for Central and Eastern European languages and double-letter ligatures – is a fantastic choice for big headlines, signage and posters.

Several other recent HVD releases are worth mentioning, too:

Quench is an informal, high-contrast square sans (with a very impressive bold display weight and a deceptively gentle italic);

the Klint superfamily is a much more formal, rule-based face that also shares a similar square grid with Quench – and, among its 30 fonts, includes condensed, normal and extended widths and companion italics for each weight;

Snoogle is a soft, curvy face that could be made of bubblegum, and is complemented by plenty of display ligatures and a fun dingbats face;

Brandon Grotesque is a beautiful six-weight sans based on some of the most successful grots of the 1920s and ’30s, and is made elegant by its delicate forms and very low x-height; and

Shelton’s letterforms come from a wide variety of distressed alphabets of wood type.
