ABOUT







John Peter

American type designer. Creator of ITC Peter's Miro in 1997. This is a scratchy kid's handwriting, sold by ITC and Linotype, and named after Joan Miro, the painter.

Note: FontShop credits John Peter with the famous open caps typeface Castellar MT (1957), but just about everyone else gives this typeface to John Peters, a British type designer. I think that FontShop is wrong here.

Inversely, MyFonts credits that same John Peters, who lived from 1917 until 1989, with ITC Peter's Miro, a typeface that was made in 1997. So, MyFonts too is wrong!
