Introduction Many typeface catalogs, including our own, group all serif typefaces together under one umbrella-category.

About MemphisŪ Bold ...

Linotype usage sample for MemphisŪ Pro Bold
Designer: Rudolf Wolf, 1930
MemphisŪ Bold belongs to the MemphisŪ Font Family which is part of the Linotype Originals.
Because of the geometric basis of its forms, Memphis is often thought of as a font for technical fields, making a rational, purposeful impression. This emphasis on objectivity is well-suited to technical texts, but Memphis is appropriate for any text which should exhibit a clear, neutral character. Some weights are availabla as soft rounded versions.
