ABOUT







David Knox

In 1855, David Knox started producing wood type in Fredericksburg, OH, together with Edwin and Thomas Ferry, John McNulty, and M.S. Richards. The latter four were on strike at the W.T. and S.D. Day Co., a competing wood type manufacturer in the same city, and left that company to start with Knox. A flood destroys the plant in 1858, and that was it.

Revivals include Grecian Light Face (2016, Wood Type Revival: this revices the 1858 typeface Light Face Grecian).
