“The roman and italic were issued by Inland Type Foundry in
1900, with other versions [Condensed, Light Face, Bold Italic,
Condensed Bold] added the following year, Curiously, only the
italic and condensed forms seem to have survived long enough to be
included in ATF’s inventory of matrices when numbers were
assigned.” [McGrew]
The italic comes with several (swash) alternates, e.g. for
‘ABDPRST’. The Light Face is shown in McGrew with alternates for
‘ahmnsER’.
Sold by Caslon as Morland, in roman and
italic styles, with initials, ornaments, and vignettes. [c1905

lists John (as Barock
Egyptienne), Lettergieterij Amsterdam
and ldźkowski (Columbia),
Woellmer (Kolonial),
and Doskocil
(Washington).
However, at least some of these seem to be versions of
Post
Oldstyle Roman, not of Blanchard.
