Hello, if a TV production wishes to use one of the fonts on this website and the author isn't contactable via this website, please can you suggest how we contact them? It would really be appreciated if Allen R Walden can get in touch!!!

Brilliant you are a star! Thank you very much!

if he doesn't answer, his 5 fonts that can be found here are marked as free.
Usually it means that you can use them for free, even for commercial projects.
It's always better to ask before using a free font, but if he doens't answer...

Many thanks! The font is the Neon Lights - neon2.ttf. I have sent a request to him so I hope he does reply so his work can be featured on television

good luck !

his work has been featured everywhere for the past 20 years, even Neon Lights

Many thanks for this. It appears it is not the same Walden but I have asked for a quote from Walden Font Co too...

are you sure ? Luc Devroye says they're the same
and Luc Devroye's never wrong

False

Many thanks for your replies. Oliver at Walden Font Co replied and said he wasn't Allen R Walden!

Thanks to those correcting the origin of this typeface.

The Flickr link has examples of it in use since its 1977 publication and a little about its history in the type trade set.

Please send me any sightings of new uses or of sites selling the typeface!

Just to set the record straight---on my pages I clearly state that Allen Walden and Walden Font Co (Oliver Weiss) are different.

On the other hand---mistakes do occur, and I am trying hard to be accurate.

yeah, i always refer to your pages, as it's the best information mine on the interweb regarding fonts !
but this time i think i read too quickly, sorry !
anyway, it's a pleasure to see you here
