About
Wagner Grotesk Pro is based on a typeface that circulated across European foundries and into the Americas during the early-to-mid 20th century, appearing on war and propaganda posters on both sides of the Atlantic. The tight, bold condensed structure makes it effective for packing information into restricted column widths at headline sizes.
