    Classic "Planet of the Apes" glyphic alphabet?

    Anyone have a link/info on the apes' glyphs in the classic POTA films? Not the font used in the titles, but the apes' "alphabet."

    Fan extrapolation is fine. Thanks!

        Thanks for the sharp costume details, Confessional!

        Any chance of scanning the print, Godzlla?

            ^^ You're most welcome PNG!

            Godzilla pic that poster up! I need to see that too… I've run across that piece but don't remember the origin. Was it part of a font magazine from the UK?

              There is a company called House Industries that has a font package of Apes fonts - the font from the titles called Simian and a Glyph font called Sacred Scrolls.

                ^ Many thanks for the font referral. But I see Sacred Scrolls (very cool, btw) is alphabetized. I'm searching for actual glyphs.

                  I am curious if you ever got a chance to take a picture of this item?

                    I did see font samples, but the set was not free.

                      I bought the set if you would like to have them. Still hoping Godzilla will upload the glyph/alphabet print.
