1456 Gutenberg

by GLC Foundry · Website

1456 Gutenberg is a heavy blackletter from GLC Foundry modeled after the type used in Gutenberg's earliest printed works, capturing the dense, angular texture of 15th-century German Gothic script. The letterforms are richly dark on the page, with the tight spacing and diamond-shaped serifs characteristic of textura quadrata. Best reserved for headlines, drop caps, and display use where you want an authentic connection to the origins of Western printing.
