{r} Old / antique map fonts

[Guest Jnsvda]

I'm looking for old/antique fonts for maps for my graphic design work at school.

Doesn't really matter how old (but still pretty old) but it has to link automatically to old maps when you see/read it.

All input is welcome actually.

Greetings, cheerz

I suggest Fountain Type's Incognito:

Years ago Gábor Kóthay discovered a rare book containing historic maps and various cartographic signs. Gábor had been quite an explorer as a child, and this antique book enabled him relive his love for the term "Terra Incognita" or "unknown land".

I like Gilles Le Corre for old looking fonts.

I did a conversion of Incognito using Crossfont.

Hope this is you looking for!:
