An 8-line typeface designed by
Tony Wenman and made available by Letraset for
dry-transfer lettering as part of Letragraphica 11 in 1973.

There is a commercial digitization by Ralph M. Unger (profonts,
2006, also sold by Thinkdust), but it doesn’t include the
alternates nor the original dotted ‘i’. See Iván Moreno’s
