Advocat

Christian Schwartz spent most of 2020 on an extended parental leave that made it hard to find time or energy to concentrate on type design. Scattered hours while the kids were in bed went to this typewriter face, a sufficiently low-stakes project, based on a low-res scan of an old IBM Selectric ‘golf ball’ alphabet called Advocate, designed by Howard “Bud” Kettler (best known as the designer of Courier). Rough source material led to a very loose interpretation. Richard Turley has used it for a few small publications with Civilization. [vault.commercialtype.com]

Not to be confused with Matthew Butterick’s Advocate.
