You've been busy!  Thank you for this slab-serif gem.

Incidentally, Paolo W. (Intellecta) appears to have used Kid Ory B as a 
the basis for his font, Tissot. I very much prefer the numbers that 
you've created to his. Yours are much more in keeping with the rest of 
the typeface.

Jeff Levine also used it as a basis for his Texarkana JNL.

Interesting that no UN-ornamented versions have shown up before yours!

I found those two by posting the solotype catalog's Kid Ory image to 
WhatTheFont.

Thank you again.

P.S. - are you no longer posting to Annexcafe or zeppole?
