Calgary Script by Alejandro Paul
Designer Alejandro Paul (opens in new tab) was inspired to create this font during his travels. "Calgary Script was mostly inspired by a brush script on a Welcome To Calgary sign in, you guessed it, Calgary," he comments on MyFonts. "Though now, after it’s finished, I can easily tell the influence is evident of all the books on American sign painting I have absorbed over the years.
"The overall effect of the font is similar to something that Fonzied itself, big hair and leather jackets and all, out of the early 1980s, but the feeling really dates back to a few decades earlier. Heady caps and free-flowing lowercase make for a speedy, determined, and instinctively organized buffalo herd of a typeface."
Calgary Script is available to purchase from MyFonts (opens in new tab).
