**Cowling Sans AOE** is a charming Art Deco architectural style typeface. It is the cleaned-up, refined revival and elaboration of a lettering design from ***"Lettering for Commercial Purposes" by Wm. Hugh Gordon*** published in 1918. What began as a basic character set of Capitals, lowercase, and two styles of ampersand has been expanded to a full character set including unlimited fractionals, superiors & inferiors, ordinals, tabular, proportional, and oldstyle figures, and an expanded language glyph set, all with a smallcaps and Caps to Smallcap set to match.

This lettering style exudes the charm of its era with every word set in it by way of the small details that set it apart from other sans typestyles.

One of my guilty pleasures is in taking the time to recreate historical typefaces as digital fonts, and expand on their character sets to enable them to be used more widely than their limited originals. A lot of incredible historical typestyles created as wood or metal type with bare bones character sets have been lost or only exist as limited specimen proofs in old books. While these typefaces may have more niché uses than modern typefaces, I believe it is important to preserve them for future generations. These typefaces, if nothing else, can often inspire new creations.
