ABOUT

Scarab13 [Haris Cizmic]

Bosnia-Herzegina-based designer of the old typewriter typefaces Mercedes1937 (2017) and Western Front (2017). Haris Cizmic is possibly the same person as Dorian Grey who published the same Mercedes 1937 typeface with the same surrounding explanation: There is an interesting story about this vintage professional Mercedes typewriter. 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 its uniqueness (as well as its story). I have intentionally kept it in its 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. It was shown again by 123Creative, which operates out of Bratislava, Slovakia.
