Samson Classic SG FONT Download

Samson Classic SG was designed by Robert Middleton, Jim Spiece and published by Spiece Graphics. Samson Classic SG contains 1 style.  

Here is another classic design by Robert Hunter Middleton for the Ludow Foundry in 1940.

Samson Classic is a very heavy display face with a wonderful medley of thick-and-thins. Developed just before World War II, this sturdy, chunky style gained popularity in newspaper advertising work. It appears as though it was created using a broad pen and retains the angled stroke endings.

Goes great on certificates and diplomas where just a hint of calligraphy is appropriate.

Samson Classic is also available in the OpenType Std format. Some new characters including decorative ornaments for creating certificates have been added to this OpenType version. Advanced features currently work in Adobe Creative Suite InDesign, Creative Suite Illustrator, and Quark XPress 7. Check for OpenType advanced feature support in other applications as it gradually becomes available with upgrades.
