A NOTE ON THE TYPE

THE TEXT of this book has been set on the Monotype
in a type face named Bembo. The roman is a copy of a
letter cut for the celebrated Venetian printer Aldus
Manutius by Francesco Griffo, and first used in Cardinal
Bembo's De Aetna of 1495 -- hence the name of the
revival. Griffo's type is now generally recognized, thanks
to the researches of Mr. Stanley Morison, to be the first
of the old face group of types. The companion italic is
an adaptation of a chancery script type designed by the
Roman calligrapher and printer Lodovico degli Arrighi,
called Vincentino, and used by him during the 1520's.
