@lubalincenter @mttymtt The typesetting inside Fact is some of the best-looking Times I've ever seen. A lot of the content hasn't aged particularly well, though... Ralph Ginzburg was progressive on many topics, but also extremely homophobic.

@lubalincenter @mttymtt Everything about this is great - tracking, contrast, weight... This was one of our main references for the headline sizes of Feature, though it ended up in a pretty different place.

We are in the renaissance of Time New Roman, and I am here for it! If you aren’t working on your own version of Times, what are you even doing?

Happy publication day to these beauts (for yesterday!) by @SimonNapierBell, published by @Unbounders. Uses Druk from @commercialtype. Thanks also to Alex Eccles and @johnmitchinson for trusting me with the design and Jo Carlill for the Picture Research.

@LyricWest2 It could, but I have no plans to draw one. This is a question for @Monotype

@commercialtype question. a condensed helvetica on letraset existed. could that be put into Neue Haas Grotesk?

@plain_form @delurepointorg @grifi_txt Really looking forward to reading this, sounds super interesting!

@commercialtype Thanks, it means so much! Coincidentally, I presented Ready for the first time this summer at @delurepointorg and drew many lines with Marian and particularly some of the ideas presented in its specimen. Well, all of this should be an article pretty soon (right, @grifi_txt?).

Congratulations to @plain_form on opening today! plain-form.com There's a lot to love here but Ready is especially great. plain-form.com/typefaces/ready
