Columbus in use for Signet’s paperback edition of a selection of writings by Walter Pater (1839–1894), edited by Harold Bloom. Signet Classics CJ743, 1974.
Designed by Hermann Ihlenburg, Columbus was first released in 1890 by the MacKellar, Smiths & Jordan foundry. It’s reproduced in Ludwig Petzendorfer’s Schriftenatlas Neue Folge (1903–1905), and was rediscovered in the 1960s. One such revival was made at Photo-Lettering. It’s shown in their 1971 catalog under the name Columbus Antique, with a second, slightly beefier weight.
