Tommy Thompson (type designer)
Samuel Winfield "Tommy" Thompson (1906–1967)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Samuel Winfield Thompson 1906–1967 - Arnold-Moberly Families | Tommy Thompson's family profile )〕 was an American calligrapher, graphic artist and typeface designer. He was born Blue Point, New York. In 1944 he became the first designer to earn royalties for a type design, from Photo Lettering Inc. for his Thompson Quill Script. Previously, designers had worked in house for foundries or had sold the rights to their faces outright. He maintained a studio in Norwalk, Connecticut and was the author of several books on type and lettering.〔Rollins, Carl Purlington ''American Type Designers and Their Work.'' in Print, V. 4, #1, p.18.〕
