There are some real doosies out there that should never be spelling out any proper words, so when I come across a font I can actually imagine using, YAY! Yay for BB Petie Boy. It reminds me a bit of Edward Gorey's handdrawn lettering and I've alway had a soft spot for typefaces rendered in the rough/sketch style, showing the human hand behind the creation.
Speaking of Edward Gorey, I came across another free font based on the lettering he uses in his dark but wonderfully surreal and sad stories.

I don't think I will be using either one of these anytime soon but I appreciate the work that went into them. very cool. You can find the free downloads for "Freshfonts" here.
Have a favorite free and fabulous typeface you created or found online? Share them in the comments section and keep an eye out for my own personal font I'm creating through Fontifier.
