ABOUT

Levrault

French type foundry in Strassbourg, est. 1675. In 1795 the Beaumarchais foundry was partly sold to Franz Laurent Xavier Levrault (1762-1821). Levrault in turn was sold in 1854 and became Berger-Levrault. The latter company resettled in Nancy, France, in 1873.

Specimen books include Epreuves des caractères de la fonderie de Frères Levrault, à Strasbourg (by François Georges Levrault, 1800). Local download of that book.
