Gothic Round was first introduced as wood type by the George Nesbitt Co. in 1838. The font is a softened variation of a basic heavy Gothic typeface. The style stimulates a much more current history of the 1960s and 70s and can be seen in such places as donut shops and on kids's toys in addition to motivation for such typefaces as VAG Rounded.
Gothic Round has not formerly been readily available as a digital font style till now. The font style was digitized by Miguel Sousa from a wide variety of historic sources, consisting of check outs to the Cary Collection at RIT (Rochester, NY), WNY Book Arts Center (Buffalo, NY) and the Hamilton Wood Type Museum (Two Rivers, WI). The result is a very solid and contemporary typeface with a 175 year history.
