Saks Goudy
A typeface designed by Frederic Goudy in 1934. Mac McGrew: Saks Goudy and Italic were designed and cut by Frederic W. Goudy in 1934 as private types for the Saks Fifth Avenue department store in New York. Although having the classic proportions of most of this designer's romans and italics, these typefaces achieve distinction through many small details, such as the tapered strokes of K, R, V, W, etc. As the small caps were quite small in relation to the regular caps, Goudy used their patterns to cut caps of full height, thus producing a bold face. No record has been found of the sizes produced. Digital versions include Richard Beatty's Saks Goudy from 1990. |
