About Kroegbainder Font

Back in the early 70s I had these cheap radios and tape recorders , some of them made in the old DDR. They had equally cheap logos on them -that I loved-, and I tried to make a font that looks like that for the past two days. This is what I came up with, Kroegbainder, a modern display typeface from when the East Bloc was still a thing.
