Griffith Gothic in use

“Of all his work, Chauncey Griffith claimed one type, Bell Gothic, as his own design. Griffith Gothic is a revival of the 1937 Mergenthaler original, redrawn as the house sans for Fast Company. Tobias Frere-Jones drew a six weight series from light and bold, removing linecaster adjustments and retaining the pre-emptive thinning of joints as a salient feature. Italics & condensed complete this ultimately legible sans series.” —Font Bureau, 1997–2000.

Transferred from Font Bureau to Frere-Jones Type in 2020; available directly from Frere-Jones Type starting in 2025.
