Wow, they're expensive. I've got all the fonts, under different names and they were all free.

I'm assuming it's different people recreating the same design, and one tries charging or it and the other just puts it up for free? Or is someone charging for fonts that should be free, or putting fonts up for free that should cost money?

My assumption would be that the fonts linked above are the official digital versions, likely adapted directly from the original type specimens. Free versions are either pirated copies of the official fonts, or if they have different names, amateur fan-made versions.

Until you buy font making software and realize how much work goes into it.
