Antique Bold Condensed is the name of Mecanorma’s dry-transfer adaptation of Typefoundry Amsterdam’s Smalle Vette Antieke (1909), which in turn is based on Berthold’s Bücher Grotesk halbfett* with modifications [Amsterdam 1968]. Shown with “Amsterdam” credits [Mecanorma 1970]. Already shown in a 1967 ad.

*) Later integrated into the Akzidenz-Grotesk family as the schmalfett style.
