Description
English: Monotype in the 1920s and 30s was an integral part of British design through its supply of printing equipment and its ability to create typefaces which suited the arts and crafts revival mood of the period. A collection of digital renditions of its fonts, mostly from this period. (Some digitisations aren't Monotype's but done (or at least released) by URW, SoftMaker, Adobe and others, and I should note that they aren't always that good - for a closer look best to consult hot metal specimens from Bixler or others.) Sample texts are names of English rivers and their tributaries, from source towards sea.

If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Monotype font samples.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
