Journal Hand was designed by Ronna Penner and published by Typadelic. Journal Hand contains 1 style.  

Journal Hand was inspired by a 45-year-old travel diary I bought at an estate sale. The carefully constructed all-uppercase letters indicated that this traveler cared about style and legibility. Each picture, postcard and brochure that was glued into the diary had a neatly written caption and I admired the care this day tripper took to record his European trek. While the pages are now yellowed and falling apart, the handwriting is still legible and stylish. Because his handwriting totally suits today’s uses, I re-created it in modern journalistic style that looks like it was written with a technical pen.

Use this typeface when you need a neatly handwritten style. Uppercase only!
