About Herr Von Muellerhoff

Herr Von Muellerhoff is a formal script typeface with a steep rightward slant and very thin strokes. The lowercase letters are small and tightly joined, while ascenders, descenders and capitals reach far above and below them, so a capitalised word is dominated by its first letter. The design is one of a set of digital revivals of the Charles Bluemlein Script Collection, which the official notes present as a record of American hand lettering between the early 1930s and the Second World War. According to those notes, the original alphabets were built up from collected signatures and then given fictitious names, which the revival keeps. The family has one Regular style and is not a variable font. Its 233 glyphs cover the basic Latin set. The name table credits Alejandro Paul, the official page lists Sudtipos, and the license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

Things to know

Hairline strokes

The thin strokes nearly vanish in the small sample line of the specimen; the script needs large sizes and good contrast with the background.

Capitals are for starting words

In the specimen a line set entirely in capitals overlaps into a tangle. The capitals are drawn to lead into lowercase.

Basic Latin only

The font has 233 glyphs. Latin Extended is not covered, so languages such as Polish, Czech and Turkish are incomplete.
