Girard et Cie
[Robert Girard]
Robert Girard (b. 1883, d. 1955) was a school friend of Charles Tuleu, who had inherited Fonderie Laurent&Deberny in 1881. Tuleu teamed up with Girard in 1914 and they cooperated until 1921, when Tuleu retired and the business passed to Girard under the new name Girard Et Cie. Talks were started with Peignot about a merger. Deberny&Peignot was incorporated on July 1, 1923. Girard designed Astrée (Fonderie Deberny&Peignot, 1921-1923), a recut of a baroque Elzevir-style face. There were three styles, Astrée, Astré italique and Astrée noire. Punches were cut by M. Bourreau. Stephenson&Blake's version is called Mazarin (1926). In his 1924 oeuvre, François Thibaudeau clarifies the influence of Peignot's Nicolas Cochin on Astrée. Servane Vignes did a digital revival in 2017. Henrik Kubel (A2) published its own extension, A2 Mazarin, in 2017. |
