@typeoff We are pleased to have these holdings in our archive @Technikmuseum_B and that we can make a contribution to research by making them accessible. For the #Akzidenz-Grotesk we refer to these files.

And remember: You can visit the museum and see all of these items (and more!) yourself. In fact, I recommend it.

Thanks to the Historical Archive at the Deutsches Technikmuseum, several internal Berthold documents related to Akzidenz-Grotesk are now available to the public. All roads point to Stuttgart. Akzidenz-Grotesk’s design came to Berthold from Bauer & Co.; Berthold then expanded it.

125 years ago today – at exactly 12:05 in the afternoon, Berlin time – H. Berthold AG filed prints of 13 sizes of Akzidenz-Grotesk’s regular weight with the Berlin Muster-Register. That means that it is the typeface’s “birthday” right now. https://t.co/icKy4fjeAF

Schneekönigin is a really excellent typeface.
A snow-capped typeface to match today's weather from the Stempel Foundry's giant 1925 specimen book. https://t.co/7dVrXf7sA1

About 100 years ago, there were two methods by which brass-type fonts for bookbinders were industrially manufactured in Germany. I found a detailed description for one method (sandcasting) and translated it for you over on my website.

The German squad is flaming out of the tournament because its players suck and there is no kind of sensible organization or planning behind them. Instead, foreigners have to be blamed for stealing the team’s chances 🤦♂️

German media is falling backwards over itself in the reporting of the World Cup that most Germans are boycotting anyway. First, it belittled Japan’s win against Spain as “surprising” (which it wasn’t) and now it is arguing that Spain threw the match to punish Germany.
