Hello,
I was using a Macintosh emulator, and went to the first version of MacOS (before it was called MacOS). I opened MacDraw and found a font called London (one of only 7 available typefaces). I realized that it was removed after the fourth version (it lasted 2 years less 8 days). London was a pixel blackletter typeface, and I found it charming enough to make a "revival" of it. I just finished the revival, but there is very little information about it online other than passing mentions on Wikipedia and classifications. Does anyone have any information about it? Appended is what it looks like (my revival, which is 99% accurate)
