(Gothic in this context means 'sans-serif', at the time a common usage, rather than blackletter.[5]) The typeface also bears comparison with late-nineteenth-century engraving faces such as Copperplate Gothic, which were popular for business card and corporate stationery printing.

- 2Digitizations
Metal type[edit]
The original metal typeface was capitals-only in light, medium and bold in regular and condensed widths, with larger sizes released as Poster Gothic.[1][6][a] According to McGrew, the range of sizes cast allowed smaller sizes to be used as small capitals for larger sizes.[1] It became a standard design, with Monotype, Linotype, Ludlow and Intertype offering versions.[1] When Linotype issued a digitization in the 1980s small caps were added in the lower-case position, and this has become common in digital releases.[6]
