I think this face from my local paper is related to albertus,
its incised but has some calligraphic features...

thanks,
enrico

I dunno...the slimbach "a" terminates with a flat line at the baseline, whereas this one has a curved tail...although at a smaller type size it may not be discernible to the client...hmm...

Oops. Jumped the gun on that one. I suspect it's something Dutch, now that I look more closely.

Thought so: It's Gerard Unger's Gulliver.

Neat! I'm totally excited, even though I'm just there Thursday to Sunday, and missing out on the AIGASF stuff on Tuesday :-(

Hooray, type nerds!
