This list of VGC (Visual Graphics Corporation) typefaces was originally drawn up by Tim Ryan. It was managed by Grant Hutchinson for a while, but some oddities were noted by some typophiles. Freddy Nader pointed out many omissions. This list is dynamic. I will add corrections, question marks, notes, and so on. Please email me (google Luc) with suggestions and corrections so that we can set the historical record straight.
