About

Drawn from the vernacular of 19th-century wood type, this condensed family leans into retro texture and period character across 42 styles. Alternate glyphs for g, r and y are available via OpenType salt, and tabular figures can be switched on for numeric setting. A companion set called Gothic Extras provides borders, ornaments and frames drawn from vintage Hamilton wood-type catalogues of the 1800s, offered free alongside the main family.

Classification

An antiqued condensed sans-serif inspired by 19th-century wood type, placing it firmly in the display category with a historical vernacular subcategory rather than a functional grotesque or humanist classification.
