The version of Neuland (1923) used here is Richard Kegler’s digital interpretation named Koch Nueland, released in 2000 by P22. It’s special in that it has alternate capital forms in its lowercase. Kegler elaborates in the release notes:
The cover shows the distinctive A with the angled crossbar, which is unique to the original 10pt cut, and the narrow R with a very small counter and a horizontal terminal on the leg, which can be found in the 36pt cut. Both forms are included in Koch Nueland’s lowercase. Its uppercase R (in “Revolution”) by contrast appears to be derived from the 8pt size.
