Spartan Heavy Calendar Figures

Spartan Heavy Calendar Figures are typecast in type-high solid metal, on accurate point-system bodies, deep cut and durable. Each font contains sufficient logotypes to set any single calendar month. Unlike electrotyped calendars, they may be used indefinitely. The Calendar Figures are available in the following point sizes: 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48. Set width of each logotype is 1½ times body size, which permits easy composition and arrangement to fit space requirements.

Each calendar font contains dates-of-the-month logotypes from 1 to 31, including double-date logotypes 23/30 and 24/31. Days-of-the-week logotypes and spacing blanks are provided. There are no panel rules or type for the month and year. The compositor may arrange calendar, taking advantage of available space, and set month and year in any appropriate type.

SPARTAN HEAVY
CALENDAR FIGURES



the atf Spartan Family

All sizes are cast on Common Line, a time-saving feature when interchanging weights and sizes. They are closely, carefully fitted in the interest of effective spacing and are available in a complete size range, accompanied by a variety of useful auxiliaries. The smaller sizes match the characters of Linotype's Spartans. These features assure the Spartans frequent use. Because they are foundry cast by ATF, the Spartans will give lasting service and prove themselves doubly profitable.
