Broadway is a decorative typeface, perhaps the archetypal Art Deco typeface. The original face was designed by Morris Fuller Benton in 1927 for ATF as a capitals only display face. It had a long initial run of popularity, before being discontinued by ATF in 1954. It was re-discovered in the Cold Type Era and has ever since been used to evoke the feeling of the twenties and thirties. Several variants were made:〔MacGrew, Mac, ''American Metal Typefaces of the Twentieth Century'' Oak Knoll Books, New Castle Delaware, 1993, ISBN 0-938768-34-4, pp. 50-51.〕 * ''Broadway'' (1928, Morris Fuller Benton, ATF), capitals only. * ''Broadway Engraved'' (1928, Sol Hess, Monotype). * ''Broadway (with lowercase)'' (1929, Hess, Monotype). * ''Broadway Condensed'' (1929, Benton, ATF). ==Digital Copies== Digital versions are now made by Linotype, Elsner+Flake, Monotype, Bitstream, and URW++. ''ITC Manhattan'' is virtually identical and is sold by ITC and Linotype, while ''Glitzy'' is a knock-off made by Ingrimayne Type. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Broadway (typeface)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
