Hi
Is anyone aware of where I could find the font IBM news gothic?
Apparently its a version of News Gothic used by IBM in the 60's and Im desperate to get hold of it.
Any help would be great as I have already stumped all of my peers with this one.
Best
Richard -
My guess is that you'd have to get the actual
News Gothic "golf ball" for the Selectric - for
which the face was designed. There are
examples of this face in the Karel Martens
"Printed Matter" book. If my memory
serves, the examples are naturally very
small. Although, you would think there are
some specimens somewhere.
