Notes : Here is a collection of ornaments, which go along rather nicely with Adobe's Wood Type Package. There isn't much to say about this font - all of the characters were digitized from an enlarged photocopy of Roy Kelly's American Wood Types, and most of ornaments, flourishes and pointers come from Hamilton's 1906 catalogue, which original I have never seen. Interestingly enough, most of the Adobe Type can be found in Kelly's book, a not surprising fact since American Wood Type is the wood type bible, nearly by itself sparking a revival of interest (and types) in Wood Type. Also, Kelly wrote an introduction for Adobe, and methinks acted as a consultant of sorts as well. To be fair to Adobe, the types seem to deserve the label "Original", not only because of the quality of digitization, which is high, but also because the Adobe design staff created characters never previously included with the face. At any rate, most of the characters here don't appear in Adobe's Package (which was part of the reason why this font exists at all), and though some of the curves in the font are less than entirely satisfactory (which font having been coughed up over a week last month), I hope it will be of some use.
