Under the direction of Günter Gerhard Lange, Berthold added AG Medium Italic (1963), AG ExtraBold (1966), AG Italic (1967), AG ExtraBold Condensed & Italic (1968), AG Super (1968). In the 1950s Günter Gerhard Lange, then art director at Berthold, began a project to enlarge the typeface family, adding a larger character set, but retaining all of the idiosyncrasies of the 1898 face.
The Theinhardt foundry later merged with Berthold and also supplied the regular, medium and bold weights. Originally named “Accidenz-Grotesk” the design originates from Royal Grotesk light by royal type-cutter Ferdinand Theinhardt. “Akzidenz” indicates its intended use as a typeface for commercial print runs such as publicity, tickets and forms, as opposed to fine printing, and “grotesque” was a standard name for sans-serif typefaces at the time.īerthold first published Akzidenz-Grotesk in 1898. Akzidenz-Grotesk is a sans-serif typeface family originally released by the Berthold Type Foundry of Berlin.
