Body — 18 px in the face
Astigmatic's typewriter-style face — letters set as if struck through a ribbon, with the irregularities a real typewriter would produce. Single weight, monospaced. The lab uses it on archive accession cards, scrapbook annotations, and the burn-glow text of the microfiche carriage. A font for anything wanting to feel found-in-an-attic.
