FONT RECOGNITION VIA FONT MOOSE




Sam Potts Designer of Addressograph. Sam Potts and Sam Potts Inc are located in Brooklyn, NY. His sketches of Addressograph are based on lettering from a vintage ad for the Addressograph-Multigraph Corporation, manufacturers of the Addressograph addressing machine that stamped out dog-tag-like plates that were used to print mailing labels at high volume. The glyphs of Addressograph follow the gaspipe lettering style popular in the United States in the 1930s and 1940s. In 2014, Jesse R. Ewing (Midwest Type), created the retail typeface Addressotype that is based on Addressograph.
