Walbaum Grotesk specimen from Storm Type Foundry

A modern grotesque built to keep the Walbaum revival company, since Walbaum himself never drew a sans.

About

Justus Erich Walbaum almost certainly never intended to design a sans-serif, so Walbaum Grotesk is Storm's own invention: six weights with italics built to sit comfortably alongside the Walbaum serif revival in mixed-use projects.

Classification

A modern grotesque companion to the Walbaum revival rather than a literal Walbaum design, since Walbaum himself never drew a sans.
