Hello Sparks,

I wanted to send out the "World's Best MILL Font" to you.

It was made by one of the best CW operators in Cuba, Frank CO2IR.

Enjoy and if you work Frank, CO2IR, tell him "Hello" from me.

His font has all the letter variations needed for various languages, at least one's with Roman letters.

It seems the font was not sent.

My apologies.

To make up for my mistake, I add CO2IR's excellent font but also some additional of my own.

As my penance for being careless, you get three bonus fonts, one is a Roman font with small caps and the other is my version of a typeface that Vibroplex of Broadway, NYC used, it suited the Albright's telegraph business and his typewriter repair business, it was all caps which is what telegrapher's need, and it had large and small caps for regular correspondence, and it was italic typeface which Underwood and Royal sold. It didn't have the slash zero but I added that.

For those who want a non-italic Orator MILL type font, I also send the regular version of Orator Regular.

So in total, four fonts, CO2IR's excellent font, and three of mine.
