I would classify it is as neo-Victorian medium-contrast decorative italic. I have recently worked on it extensively to make it usable as a multilingual slightly redesigned font in OTF format. Most of those 2,000 scans were lost when I changed computers a long time ago, but Abel Cursive survived and I made a down-and-dirty mow-and-blow font back then. Before I sold my equipment and closed my business for good, I made a scan of every typeface at 72-point size that I owned for future development, if there ever came a time to work on something crazy like that.

He operates as APT and more recently as AJPT. He advertizes himself as a leader in PostScript Open Type Font development specializing in the revival of print-only letterforms into digital typographic materials. Originally from Greenfield, MA, he graduated from Saddleback College, and worked for some time as a typesetter in New York.
