Hobby Horse NF Font
Author's note
Hobby Horse by Nick Curtis of Nick's Fonts is a free retro serif display font with the genial bounce of hand-painted fairground lettering. Its tall, softly modulated strokes, rounded slab-like serifs, and compact curves make the letterforms feel sturdy yet pleasantly eccentric.
It is especially convincing for amusement posters, festival signage, and children's book covers, where the jaunty shapes can become part of the entertainment rather than neutral text. Toy shops and family-oriented food brands are a natural audience for its warm, old-fashioned humor.
