About

Kelham Grotesque takes the narrow grotesques of Britain's factories and foundries and redraws them as a modern variable family, from Thin to Bold. It is well stocked for typographers, with extended ordinals, microtypographic corrections and seven stylistic sets. Latin and Cyrillic are both covered.

Classification
