Description

LTC Bodoni 175 is modern typeface originally created by Giambattista Bodoni in 1790, which served as the structural model for this faithful rendition by Sol Hess.

Type Designer

Lanston Type Co.

Lanston Type Co. (LTC) has roots back to the Lanston Monotype Company of 1887, founded by Tolbert Lanston, inventor of the Monotype casting machine. After parting ways with its English counterpart, LTC struggled and was sold several times to American Type Founders, Hartzel Machine Works, Mackenzie & Harris, and Gerald Giampa. P22 Type Foundry acquired it in 2004 and is now home to classic designs of Frederic W. Goudy and Sol Hess and newer contemporary masters Giampa, Jim Rimmer, and Dave Farey.
