English Monotype’s version of Garamond was designed in-house in 1922
after Jannon (roman, series 156) and Granjon (italic, series
174).* Extended with series 201 in Bold (1925) and
Bold Italic (1931) [Gill 2020] [Reichardt 2011].
*) “[…] Stanley Morison
wrote in his memoir that the italic was based on Granjon’s work,
but as Carter’s commentary on it notes, this seems generally to be
a mistake. The swash capitals, however, at least, probably are
based on the work of Granjon.” [Wikipedia]
Not to be confused with Frederic W. Goudy’s Garamont for (American) Monotype (1923,
series 248).
As of 2021, the digital version is unavailable from Monotype’s
channels. It can still be licensed More…
