Geographica Italic
About
Thomas Jefferys (ca. 1710–1771) was the best-known map engraver in 18th-century England, chiefly because he won (and hyped) the title “Geographer to King George III.” Jefferys was more an engraver/publisher than a geographer, really, since he mostly relied on the cartographic materials of others. Still, his maps of the North American colonies were well known.
Geographica Italic is one of four styles in a serif text-type family modeled after the neat hand-lettered place names and peripheral text on Jefferys’s maps. This legible font combines a hand-drawn warmth with a distinctly historical flair. With its long descenders and ample x-height, Geographica Italic will add classic elegance to labels, titles, announcements, invitations, and numerous other applications, whether on paper or screen. OpenType features include small capitals and two stylistic sets of titling caps. Comes with a slew of unique cartographic ornaments, and offers full support for Central and Eastern European languages—more than 1,200 glyphs in all.
