Jim Spiece took pleasure in reviving old typefaces, which often entailed an adventurous journey searching through public library basements, flea markets, and covert bookstores for complete character sets. The process involved meticulous scanning and outlining by hand, sometimes requiring him to delve darker depths for a faded punctuation mark or an elusive double f-ligature. To him, these were minor hassles in the grand scheme of resurrecting previously obscure font styles and providing them new applications. He amusingly opined that while his task was enjoyable, his personal designs came across as comparatively plain as they lacked the intrigue of pre-existent lives. Featured amongst his notable work is the revival of the Bernhard Gothic SG Family, offered by FontHau.
