Amsterdamer Garamont

A.k.a. Garamont Amsterdam. Based on ATF Garamond (1917) by Morris Fuller Benton and Thomas Maitland Cleland, taken over in 1927 [Amsterdam 1968]. Other sources give a 1925 date. [Reichardt 2011] Also carried by Berthold. [Berthold 1974]

Digital versions from Berthold and Elsner+Flake appear darker and more loosely spaced, indicating that they are likely based on smaller sizes. URW’s version is a large-size revival. Scangraphic offers both text (SB) and display (SH) versions.
