SERIF: MISCELLANEOUS
Albertus: German, designed by Berthold Wolpe, 1932. Funny — I always thought this was quintessentially British.
Friz Quadrata: Swiss, designed by Ernst Friz, 1965. Very popular for such an strange typeface.
Auriol: French, designed by Georges Auriol, 1901. Very art nouveau, almost Chinese in its dabbing calligraphy.
Engravure: British, designed by Monotype, 1920. I could have picked any of these lookalikes, so I chose the British version.

LINEAL GROTESQUE
Doric 12: British, designed by Caslon, 1830. The first sans serif typeface. Did they realise what they were starting? Groundbreaking Brits again.

Next: Lineal Grotesque to Lineal Humanist
