Hoover Font Family

Hoover is a family of five monolinear slab serif fonts. Their most striking feature is that their letterforms do not included any curved or rounded parts at all. Elements of the roman alphabet that are usually round have instead been built-up here out of a combination of horizontal, vertical, and diagonal strokes. This style immediately calls Anglo-American ‘collegiate’ graphics to mind. Letters like those in the Hoover fonts have also been used, generally speaking, to promote many kinds of athletics for over a century.
