font of the month | Burgues Script

On May 15, Veer presented for the first time anywhere, “a paragon of Spencerian penmanship and tastefully exuberant ornamentation” Alejandro Paul’s latest creation, Burgues Script. A beautifully crafted font with ligatures, alternates and ornaments in the favored Open Type format available online at Veer’s website. You can view a specimen PDF guide or you can buy the font for $99 and play with it all on your own.

The only other font that is even close to comparison is Zaner from International House of Fonts. You can see and buy the font on the website for $99.95 and is also available in Open Type format. My only problem is I’ve yet to find a suitable design to use it in, one day it will complete an idea. View the specimen guide (PDF) here.
