Character Set


WyomingSpaghetti (Plain, Bold)

(available at myfonts.com and fonts.com)

Typefaces with very thin verticals and fat, square serifs were popular in the 19th century for display. Hollywood helped associate this style with the Old West, but reference books identify some of it as Italian style. WyomingSpaghetti, which was the first of a series of faces, has a name which combines these two associations.

Wyoming Spaghetti comes in two flavors, Plain and Bold. Both are square-serifed typefaces in which the verticals are thin relative to the serifs. Most typefaces of this type are very condensed, but these are not. The letter o is nearly circular, which is rather unusual in this style.

Obviously these are for display purposes and should be used at larger point sizes.

The theme in these typeface was further developed in the other Wyoming families
