Solution Kevin Thompson Posted Friday at 01:49 PM Solution Share Posted Friday at 01:49 PM I believe the calligraphic serif typeface that has been eluding us is Menhart-Antiqua. A full specimen can be found here. The specimen dates from 1938, but the typeface was designed in 1931 and released in 1932. 1 1 Link to comment

Kevin Thompson Posted Friday at 06:51 PM Share Posted Friday at 06:51 PM I found it in a source (Letter Library) created by Ralf, and I’m only as good as my sources. Best of luck with your dissertation. 1 1 Link to comment
Ralf Herrmann Posted Friday at 07:32 PM Share Posted Friday at 07:32 PM 38 minutes ago, Kevin Thompson said: I found it in a source (Letter Library) created by Ralf … Which explains why the font looked so familiar to me, yet I couldn’t identify it. 😉 1 Link to comment
Kevin Thompson Posted Friday at 07:44 PM Share Posted Friday at 07:44 PM We won't talk about how many typefaces ending in “-Antiqua” I had to slog through before I got to that one.... 1 Link to comment
