Benn had already done the California Zephyr font (working from photographs,
if I remember correctly--I can't find the old correspondence right now...)
when I sent a photocopy of the RMC article to him and asked if he'd add the
PZ-specific characters, and the "AE" for AEolus. He graciously did so and
made a great font even better! :-)

Best regards,

Randy
