“Alexon […] was originally designed by Les Usherwood (Typsettra), and was digitally produced by Steve Jackaman (ITF) in 1992 exclusively for the Red Rooster Collection. Alexon began its life as a single weight, however Jackaman expanded on the original designs and produced three additional weights. Alexon was inspired by ‘Basilea,’ a font created by Markus J. Low in 1965 for Visual Graphics Corporation (VGC).” — Red Rooster
