Hamilton Gothic Neue
Designer: Mike Sulick | Release Date: 02.10.21
“Gothic Bold” was a set of wood type first featured in J.E. Hamilton’s 1889 “Specimens of Wood Type and Borders” catalog. It was a funky and charming reverse-stress, subtly-serifed typeface consisting of only 26 uppercase characters, a set of numbers, and a handful of special characters. Hamilton Gothic Neue is a revisit and revival of this classic wood type, digitized and updated for the modern age with new lowercase characters, a complete set of ancillary glyphs, and the addition of a “Special Extended” weight to complement the standard condensed letterforms.
Many of the original wood type’s unconventional oddities were included and elaborated on in the lowercase and extended weight, including the sparse serifs, tight counters, thin diagonals, and inconsistent crossbar thickness.
Downloads as a Zip containing two OTF (Open Type) files, Standard Bold and Special Extended.
This license covers 1-5 users. For additional users, please purchase additional licenses.
