HWT Gothic Round was first seen as wood type by the George Nesbitt Co. in 1838. Digitized by Miguel Sousa from a variety of historical sources, resulted in a contemporary font with a 175 year history.
Hamilton Wood Type Collection, established in 2012, is a joint venture between P22 Type Foundry and the Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum. The founding goal was to safeguard a typographic era and make classic wood type designs available as digital fonts for modern audiences. This historical collection of serif revivals, sans reinterpretations, decorative embellishments, script reclamations, and original chromatic designs is stunningly relevant and usable for any imaginative design practice.
