A2 Record Gothic Outline specimen from A2-Type

An outline cut of A2-Type's revival of Ludlow's Record Gothic, available in a single Bold weight for display use.

About

Part of A2-Type's broader systematisation of Ludlow's Record Gothic, a family with roots in the late 1920s as a copy of Morris Fuller Benton's News Gothic. The Outline variant strips the form back to its contour, making it suited to large-scale headline work, packaging and graphic applications where a lighter visual texture is needed. Available in Bold only, it sits alongside standard, mono, condensed, extra condensed and stencil cuts within the wider Record Gothic family.

Classification

A single-weight outline variant of A2 Record Gothic, itself a revival of Ludlow's Record Gothic grotesque. The outline treatment shifts it into display territory, suited to headlines and decorative use rather than text.
