Hello.

I am trying to find out what typeface would have been used in the original 1886 copy of Jekyll and Hyde.
I have been to the British library and looked at the original and made a photocopy.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

James

An excellent digital equivalent is Scotch Modern from Shinntype.

I wonder when Nick’s beautiful Scotch Modern is going to be available? Anyone know?
