Once upon a time, a co-worker of mine, Philip D. Cyr, would use a particularly fanciful inkpen-style script in display-lettering situations. I liked it a lot. “Phil,” I says, “why not do the whole alphabet, maybe a few little pictures, and I’ll make a font.” Well, one day he presented me with a stack of posterboard; he’d done some letters, all righthundreds of them. Managed to boil ’em down into a typeface called Treefrog, a name that seems to match its organic jumble, its tall x-height, its left- and right-leaning stems, its thick and thin strokes. Just remember: you have Phil Cyr to thank for Treefrog. (Must be something in the water up in Millinocket, Maine.) Has a full character set and numerous ornamental doodles, including fish, chairs, rake and shovel, star, sun, and moon. OpenType features include several alternate characters and full Latin support. US$39.

This is a fantastic resource and the fonts are beautiful! C.B., Bethesda MD
[American Scribe] may be the greatest font ever! Everyone on the planet should have it! M.P., Boulder CO
[Treefrog] is a real mess and breaks all the rules and I love it. P.M., Palatine IL
Keep up the fonts! They are some of the best I have seen in 10-plus years of design. M.O., Little Rock AR
The Lamar Pen font is divine. We are using it on a novel set in the eighteenth century, and the author is ecstatic. J.H., London, England
The Texas Hero font is fantastic and just what I have been looking for. D.M., Mahwah NJ
I'm a collector of 19th century antiques and photographs, and like to make labels and scrapbooks using fonts that fit the period of my items. I've even tried to learn the penmanship myself using dip pens... your fonts will make it so much easier! P.M., Palatine IL
