Times New Roman – g





Here are two more magnifications I made of characters from the original 10 point metal version of Times New Roman, printed letterpress in a sample book produced by Mackay’s of Chatham. The first image shows the standard issue g and the other shows the rarely used 'long extender' g. Notice the differences between the lower bowls.
