Addison Hall Posted June 24 Posted June 24 I purchased licenses for some of Mr. Bergquist's fonts from the now closed Fountain Type Foundry way back in the day, and I regret that I never snagged Waldstein. I've been trying to track it down of late, and I've even reached out to a couple of foundries that still sell his fonts. I'm posting in hopes that someone here may have an idea of how to find a discontinued font -- in a legitimate way, of course. I don't know how to contact Mr. Bergquist, or the Bruhn family (Fountain Type), but I'm more than happy to pay for use of the font. I really only intend to use it for personal projects. Thank you in advance!

Addison Hall Posted June 25 Author Posted June 25 I did hear back from one of the foundries with a very kind reply, however he was no longer in contact with Mr. Bergquist (he had retired maybe?). I'll probably reach back out to Rod Cavazos at PSY/OPS to see if he knows anything... I knew this would be a longshot, but you never know until you try. 😉
DavidH1947 Posted June 30 Posted June 30 I've been searching without success for another of Fountain's old fonts, Randy Jones's Eason Pro.
Addison Hall Posted July 1 Author Posted July 1 Oh, wow -- I remember when Randy Jones was first working on his fonts and getting feedback on the Typophile forums. More of his work, as well as Eason, can be seen on his freelance site: http://www.aquatoad.com/typeface/design/2018/09/09/type-design.html, but I don't see any contact information.
George Thomas Posted July 6 Posted July 6 Randy Jones contact info. I don't know how current it is. https://www.behance.net/aquatoad?locale=en_US or here https://www.linkedin.com/in/randyjones1/
