The distinguishing characteristics of this typeface were suggested by cover artwork for the May 1930 issue of Inland Printer: a combination of caps based on Breda Gotisch, released by H. Berthold AG in 1928, and a lowercase based on Goudy Text.

The result is a remarkably elegant and retro-stylish blackletter face.

Both versions of the font contain the complete Latin 1252 character set plus support for Central European (Unicode 1250) languages as well.
