Monotype Metal Type Faces

Based on information in the Specimen Book of 'Monotype' Printing Types, c.1970 published by The Monotype Corporation, London. Supplemented by information in earlier specimen sheets, in various editions of Monotype's Book of Information, and lists held by the Type Archive, London. A few faces listed below in italics are U.S. Lanston Monotype faces, but were available in U.K. from the Matrix Loan Library in 1939, although no longer listed in 1958. They are included below as specimen sheets were in an earlier copy of the Specimen Book of 'Monotype' Printing Types.

This list is in numeric Series number order, and includes non-Latin faces. The list can be seen in alphabetic order, if preferred, although that list omits the UA and designer information, and the L series. Note that the Series numbers shown here are those used by Monotype Corporation/Monotype International in the U.K., and not by Lanston Monotype in the U.S. The two companies used different numbers and different names for faces, and the same names for different faces. Thus it cannot be assumed that a face listed here as Caslon or Garamond, for example, will be the same design as a similarly named face in the U.S.A. There is a useful numeric order list of U.S. Monotype faces in McGrew, American Metal Typefaces of the Twentieth Century (Oak Knoll Books, 1993).

Where a serial number had a different name in earlier specimen books, the earlier name is shown beneath the later name. For some time, families of faces were distinguished by a No. and this is shown after the name of the face, although the practice was discontinued by 1970.

The Comment column shows the origin date, if known. It may be either the date of cutting, or the date of actual release. Much of the information on date and designer comes from Monotype's Book of Information 1970. If a face was withdrawn by Monotype, this is also shown in the comment column. A list of faces being withdrawn was issued by Monotype in 1966, but most withdrawal dates are based on information held at the Type Archive, London, and generally imply the date the matrices were scrapped.

The U.A. (Unit Arrangement No.) shows the unit arrangement(s) allocated to composition sizes of the typeface. Within one arrangement, each character in the fount is given a unit width, usually between 4 and 18, with 18 corresponding to an em. Thus U.A. 1 has a=9, A=13, a=9, A=14, and b=10, B=13, b=8, B=13, etc. Several typefaces may be able to share the same U.A., whereas others may need a different U.A. for each size, etc., depending upon the actual design of the face. The U.A. is used for creating a matrix layout, and matching a stopbar and wedge.

For non-Latin faces, there is now a link to the point sizes and set widths of many of the faces.
