An expanded display face rebuilt from a 19th-century American wood type alphabet.

About

Aldine Expanded was drawn from original proofs of a 19th-century American wood type alphabet, recreated and embellished at the University of Texas at Austin and keeps the wide, blocky stance of its wood-type source.

Classification

An expanded display face rebuilt from proofs of a 19th-century American wood type alphabet, so it's filed as a display revival rather than a text serif or sans.
