FONT RECOGNITION VIA FONT MOOSE




Gustav Jaeger Designer (b. 1925) of these fonts, all done at Berthold with the exceptions explicitly mentioned: Aja (1981): a calligraphic font Becket LL (1980, Linotype). Bellevue (1986): a ball terminal script Catull (1982, Berthold): a modern typeface. Google logo was made by Ruth Kedar based on a slight modification of Catull. LI> Chasseur (1988). Cornet (1989). Cosmos (1982). Daily News (1976). Some sources mention the date 1982. The font was published by Berthold in 1985, and has been used in Italy Daily, a supplement of the International Herald Tribune. See D650 Roman on the SoftMaker MegaFont XXL CD, 2002). Delta (1983). Donatus (1986). Epi kur (1986). Jaeger -Antiqua (1984). Jer sey (1985). Jumbo. Not a Berthold font, I think. Mark Twain (1973): an art nouveau /. psychedelic typeface created in reaction to VGC Eightball, and digitized in 2006 as Huckleberry by Canada Type. Not a Berthold font. Osiris (1984: see O830 Roman on Softmaker's XXL CD (2002). Prado (1990) and Prado swash (1990). Seneca (1977). See S691 Roman on the SoftMaker MegaFont XXL CD, 2002. Apparently, the former (now bankrupt) Berthold bankruptcy lawcourt administrator transferred in 1993 all Jaeger design rights from Berthold back to Gustav Jaeger. Thus, the "new" Berthold versions, sold by Linotype since 2008, are all rip-offs sold without Jaeger's consent. FontShop link. Klingspor PDF file. Linotype link. Pic.
