Designed by Walter Huxley and released by ATF in 1935, with
alternate forms for ‘AKMNWY’. No lowercase.
There are various digitizations. OPTI’s has the alternates. So
does Diner (David Rakowski, 1992), which expands the
design into 4 weights. Bitstream’s
version (1987) and Aldous
Vertical (Agfa Monotype, 1991) have the round glyphs
only. Huxley Vertical D
(URW) is lighter and taller, with scaled-down caps in the
lowercase. It has both forms of ‘AKMNWY’, but the round ones are
included under unrelated codepoints. Huxley
Vert (Image Club) comes in 2 weights, with rounded terminals. Both weights
are accompanied by separate “Alt” fonts that have the diagonal
glyphs plus additional alternates (‘EFQRSX’).
Chrysler
(HTF, 1991) is a loose interpretation in 3 widths. Huxley
Alt (HiH, 2005, expanded with Huxley
Amore and Huxley Cyrillic in 2008) is a
variation with lowercase and some stroke contrast. Jeff Levine made
various Art Deco variations inspired by Huxley, incl.
