Goudy Heavyface

LTC Goudy Heavyface is in the style of bold, broadside poster lettering designed by Frederic Goudy in 1925. It was made to be Lanston Monotype’s answer to the then relatively new “Cooper Black.” The similarity is obvious, but Goudy Heavyface has a distinct Goudy touch and an informal feel, making it unique and a welcome alternative to the now ubiquitous Cooper Black. Its generous design means it can be used on an event poster as easily as it can be used in a brochure or even a business card.
