I wonder if the Lost Type Co-op will revive it.

That was quick: http://www.typespec.co.uk/doves-type/

There's an interesting story behind it…

The guy who made the typeface Doves, about 100 years ago, got into trouble with his business partner and secretly tossed all the letters into the river Thames, so that no one could use it again.

Supposedly, it took him nine months and about 170 trips to the bridge at night, throwing more than a tonne of lead letters into the water.

Hold your breath to see who's gonna digitize it first.
