Fonts like HWT Catchwords have always been offered alongside standard alphabets in wood type catalogs. They appear so often on posters as a decorative punch that they have become part of the wood type vernacular. These words could be inserted into a design along with decorative ornaments when space was tight or to add variety to the design. Catchwords features over 80 words based directly on designs offered by Hamilton and other wood type manufacturers of the 19th and early 20th Century.
