Koch-Antiqua fett in use https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/3687/koch-antiqua-fett Koch-Antiqua fett in use. The extrabold style of Koch-Antiqua, added in 1926. Different enough to warrant a separate page. Described by Emil Wetzig as “a new, independent typeface whose features can hardly be compared to the elegant Renaissance forms of the delicate Koch-Antiqua. […] It will probably not be very suitable for [inline emphasis] because the x-heights of the lowercase letters are higher than those of the other two styles.” [Archiv, 1927] Sold abroad (incl. the UK) as Locarno heavy and in the US as Eve heavy. (Note that “heavy” was sometimes also used for the grob, i.e. Bold). Hollenstein had a phototype version under the name Loch Ness. [Hollenstein 1974] Digitized as part of Eva Antiqua (Spiece Graphics) and Kuenstler 165 (Bitstream), and as Rudko Schlagzeile (FDI, 2026, used for sample). en Copyright 2026 , FontsInUse.com LLC Mon, 20 Apr 2026 21:48:53 +0000 Mon, 20 Apr 2026 21:48:53 +0000 3600 <![CDATA[Fritz Mähler invoice, 1931]]> https://fontsinuse.com/uses/15384/fritz-maehler-invoice-1931 Kat Gilbert

Invoice by Fritz Mähler, a painter and decorator in Berlin-Wilmersdorf, specializing in “modern home decoration”. Discovered at the Ostbahnhof Antikmarkt in Berlin. Unfortunately I’m not proficient enough to identify the many typefaces printed on this invoice, but hopefully FIU is up to the challenge :)
