Jan Tholenaar
Dutchman born in 1928 who possesses one of the world's most impressive specimen collections. He founded the Grote Letter Bibliotheek (publishing house) for partially blind people in 1969. For this, he specially created a sans face, GLB-16 (designed for 16 point), with large x-height and wide character spacings. A sample of GLB is in Jan Middendorp's "Dutch Type", page 303. Grote Letter Bibliotheek is now run by his son. |
