About LTC Goudy Modern Font Family


Goudy Modern/Open was designed by Frederic Goudy, who was inspired by the caption of a French engraving. It is Goudy's first attempt at a "modern" face, but with less contrast and rigidity normally found in Bodoni style Modern faces. Goudy Modern was designed later in 1918 after viewing a proof of Goudy Open with the line filled in. Not a true modern face, but still a Goudy classic. The Pro versions include ligatures, varieties of numerals and Central European character sets.

About Lanston Type Company

Lanston Type Co. has roots back to the original Lanston Monotype Company of 1887, founded by Tolbert Lanston when he invented the Monotype casting machine. LTC went through mixed fortunes and was sold several times before Gerald Giampa eventually purchased it. In 2004, P22 Type Foundry acquired LTC. The historically important collection includes the classic designs of Frederic W. Goudy and Sol Hess, along with newer types by such contemporary masters as Jim Rimmer, Dave Farey, and Gerald Giampa.
