Google Fonts · Barry Schwartz · 2010
A faithful revival of Goudy's early twentieth-century old-style, brimming with historical character and craft.
About
Goudy Bookletter 1911 reproduces the warm, slightly irregular quality of metal type as it appeared in a specific 1911 publication, giving it an authenticity that distinguishes it from more polished revivals. Its old-style proportions and moderate contrast make it suitable for literary editorial work, book covers, and heritage branding. The single weight limits functional range but keeps its application purposeful.
Classification
A revival of Frederic Goudy's Kennerley Old Style typeface as it appeared in the 1911 printing of 'The Chap-Book', featuring characterful old-style proportions, moderate contrast, and distinctly antiquarian detailing. Available in a single weight with Latin support only.
