In anticipation of several print/poster design tutorials that I’m planning, I wanted to research some great free retro fonts for this purpose. I’ve scoured the web and found some really excellent retro/elaborate fonts that would be perfect for poster designs, print work, or creating retro web designs.

Please let me know your favorites and where you may get a chance to use them.
