Original Black

by Måns Grebäck · Website

Original Black is an extra-bold blackletter drawn from historical Gothic script traditions, refined by Mans Greback between 2018 and 2021. Heavy calligraphic strokes, angular diamond serifs, and tight letterfit give it a dense, authentic texture while keeping it more legible than many period typefaces. It works well for logotypes, album art, and anywhere a genuine Old English presence is needed.
