@herzberg@typo.social Not too much. I can tell you that design already appeared in a catalog by Deberny & Cie from around 1908, 15 years before the foundry merged with Peignot & Fils. It’s shown as Écritures lithographiques, which is more of a genre than a proper name. No note about the designer, but likely in-house. Three sizes with a common baseline. Cast on sloping bodies, with overhangs. With alternate and/or size-specific forms. https://bibliotheques-specialisees.paris.fr/ark:/73873/pf0000948850/v0217.simple.selectedTab=record 1/2
