The 100 best typefaces

Jür­gen Siebert’s Font­blog shows the count­down for the 100 best type­faces of all time. The cri­te­ria are dis­cussed there – if you read Ger­man, that is. I can proudly announce that my ITC Offic­ina came in at num­ber 8, ahead of Gill and Univers, no less. There’s a new announce­ment every day, so in a week’s time we’ll know all the win­ners. The pic­ture shows me in 1989, hold­ing the first print of what was still called ITC Correspondence.
