There is a myriad of great free fonts out there, we’ve all heard of League Gothic and Museo, but I wanted to list a few fonts that you may have missed. Wrinkly postits, old and new bookmarks transfered into one neat little post. I tried to only showcase one font from each resource so hopefully you will at the very least, by reading this post; find a few new places to browse for new fonts.

Please note that some of these fonts are completely free to use for both commercial and personal projects and some are ONLY free to use in personal projects, be sure to double check the instructions on each site.
