Aetna

Aetna is a sturdy roman wood type that can be seen in William H. Page's 1870 specimens. In the wood type era, many wood type makers had their own or similar versions:

  • James Conner's & Sons: Aetna (1888).
  • Hamilton: Aetna (or No. 62).
  • Morgans & Wilcox: Aetna, Doric.
  • National Printers & Materials: Painter's Roman.
  • William H. Page: Roman Aetna (1870).
  • Charles Tubbs: Aetna (or No. 2101).
  • Hebert Wells: Painter's Roman.

Digital revivals of this typeface include:

  • Dick Pape: AWT Page Roman Aetna (2013). Free download here.
  • Aaron Bell: HWT Aetna (2017, P22).
  • Nadia Rainieri: During her studies at Design College Australia in Brisbane, she created the layered ornamental wood typefaces Alvaro (2013) and Maria (2013) that are based on Aetna.
  • Nick Curtis: Ysleta NF (2010). Based on James Conner's Aetna (1888).
  • Jordan Davies: Aetna.
