CHROMOSOME

Chromosome is a grunge, novelty and typewriter font family. This typeface has four styles and was published by Three Islands Press.

It hit me one day that the ’60s-vintage labelmaker I found in the back of a drawer might make an interesting display face.
I began playing around—squeezing out letters at various pressures, scanning the results, going over the scans in a vector-graphics app.
Looked pretty good.
To my chagrin, however, I soon after got a glimpse of someone else’s label-tape font.
Though modeled after a more modern device, its rocketing popularity prompted me to set Chromosome aside for a year or so—but I went ahead and finished it up a couple years later.
