About the Typeface
Designed for W. A. Dwiggins: A Life in Design, master letterer and type designer Jim Parkinson digitally restored the sturdy yet elegant shapes, readability, and vigor of a classic 20th-century metal typeface, Electra. Parkinson’s design refers directly to authentic Linotype drawings in the collections of Letterform Archive and the Boston Public Library.
