Ehrhardt

Some words from Adobe:

The Ehrhardt name indicates that this typeface is derived from the roman and italic typefaces of stout Dutch character that the Ehrhardt foundry in Leipzig showed in a late-seventeenth-century specimen book. The designer is unknown, although some historians believe it was the Hungarian Nicholas Kis.

Monotype recut the typeface in 1937 to 1938 for modern publishers.

Ehrhardt has a clean regularity and smooth finish that promote readability, as well as a slight degree of condensation, especially in the italic, that conserves space.

Ehrhardt is a fine text face, especially for books.
