This book was set in Sabon, a typeface designed in 1964 by the German typographer Jan Tschichold (1902- 1974). Sabon, a practical, multi-purpose typeface with non-overlapping characters, is noted for its legibility and grace. Tschichold based Sabon on the type designs of the French typeface designers Claude Garamond (c. 1480- 1561) for the roman and Robert Granjon (1513-1589) for the italic. Sabon is named after Jacques Sabon (1535- 1580), who cast the type for many of Garamond’s faces.
The display typeface for this book is DIN Schriften Engschrift, one of a series of typefaces created in the 1930s by the German Institute for Industrial Standards for use on road signs. No further history of the face is known because the Institute, in Berlin, was bombed during World War II and its records destroyed.
