Since the semifinalists are all basic serifs, let's do a showcase of some honorable mentions.

And one for me.

They turned my boy into Gary...

tbh it was kind of liberating because if the devs themselves can fall to the ol' gary keytrap, then i, too, can sometimes let my mortal follicles flow downward, and allow myself to lettersmash about gary and/or kary in my accidental overenthusiasm

Ludlow Fraktur and Hebrew

The Ludlow Typograph was one of the four major type composing systems that survived through the 20th century (the others were Monotype, Linotype, and Intertype), and numerous typefaces were designed specifically for its system. Today we show some Fraktur and Hebrew typefaces designed for the Ludlow Typograph.

German-reading peoples were the last group to relinquish the use of Gothic typefaces like Fraktur in the mid-20th century, and since, in our post-WWII imaginations, this kind of letterform is often associated with the Nazis (even though the Nazis themselves abolished it in 1941 after associating it with Jewish influences), it seems odd and even wrong to have it displayed along with Hebrew typefaces.

These specimens are displayed side by side in Ludlow Typefaces: A Specimen Book of Matrix Fonts, produced in Chicago around 1940, just before the Nazis jettisoned the use of Fraktur. The letterform itself has its roots in the late 12th century, and so has nothing to do with the National Socialist Party, except that the Nazis and all German-reading peoples used it until the 1940s because it was a letterform long associated with German national identity. And, of course, German Jews comfortably used Fraktur to read and write in German.
