I released Walshes on June 26, 1999. The design was loosely inspired by the Minnesota Timberwolves logo, though I did not fully understand the context of the team or its sport at the time. The typeface was created quickly as a favor, and in retrospect, the execution was weak compared to my stronger work. The name came from the Walsh family in the television show Beverly Hills, 90210, who were from Minneapolis. In August 2020, I placed Walshes into the public domain.
