Description: Schooner Script replicates the handwriting of Samuel Clarke, pastor of a church in Princeton, Massachusetts, in a letter to his congregation dated 18 September 1825—a plea for donations to help some families who lost their belongings in an accident at sea. (The ill-fated boat was, in fact, a sloop, but a digital typeface already went by that name.) Clarke’s script seems evocative of the neat, distinctive penmanship of the period.

Schooner Script has a single, medium weight with very long descenders. OpenType features, include standard and discretionary ligatures, true fractions, lining and tabular figures, and support for Central and Eastern European languages.
OpenType: Standard, Access All Alternates, Contextual Alternates, Contextual Ligatures, Discretionary Ligatures, Denominator, Fractions, Historical Forms, Standard Ligatures, Lining Figures, Localized Forms, Numerator, Oldstyle Figures, Ordinals, Ornaments, Proportional Figures, Stylistic Alternates, Subscript, Superscript, Tabular Figures
