Linotype adaptation of 19th-century condensed gothics. Specific sources could be capitals from Modern Gothic (BB&S) and lowercase from an unnamed typeface by Farmer [Adobe, Bitstream]. Intertype also promoted the design for use on their machines. [Inland Printer]
In 1937 an alternate set of “Unique Capitals” was offered for the face to give it more of an art deco feeling. [Inland Printer]
Adobe/Linotype’s digital version is called Gothic 13. Bitstream also digitized the typeface as Gothic No. 13. Compugraphic had CG Gothic No. 4.
