Packard Antique

by Dieter Steffmann · Website

Packard Antique is an old-style serif from Dieter Steffmann with rough, textured letterforms that carry the worn patina of early 20th-century print work. The irregular edges and slightly distressed strokes give it a rustic, lived-in quality, like type pulled from a weathered broadside or antique label. Best at headline sizes where the surface detail comes through, making it a strong pick for vintage branding, editorial headers, and packaging with an aged aesthetic.
