Three Swiss companies manufactured type for typewriters between the 1940s and 1990s: Caractères SA, Setag and Novatype. For over 50 years, they supplied leading office machine manufacturers in Europe and around the world, including IBM, Olivetti, Paillard-Hermes and Triumph-Adler.
This volume explores the history behind typewriter typefaces and the historical context in which they were produced.
"Impact Type. Manufacturing Type for Typewriters in Switzerland, 1941-1997"
