Members BigAlC Posted April 28, 2008 Members Report Posted April 28, 2008 Hi All, I am setting up a slide show of our trip to Tucson next week. I am looking for some (free !)western style fonts. I have 'Tombstone' but am looking for something that is not all CAPS. Even a 19th century style font would be useful. I am hoping to have text pages running interwoven with the photos, rather like a silent movie, so any suggestions would be most welcome. Is anyone else around Tucson in early May?

Regards Alan Hi Alan - I had seen this on another post. Do a google search for "Rattlesnake Jack's Western Fonts". (I am so computer inept - I can't get a link to insert - sorry) Hope this helps!

I got to know the Sonoran Desert very well. In my youth I also lived in Krefeld, Herford and Bad Tolz - hence I speak German with a very odd accent.
