Heavy blackletter;
Rudolf Kochs first type from 1909
On an old page full of type specimen from the 1930s, the type is described as Schwabacher (used by the Deutsche Reichsbahn [German Imperial Railway]). As a matter of fact, it is the first print of the Offenbach script master Rudolf Koch, who came out with this typeface in 1909.
At that time, it was given the name Neudeutsch (New German). Later, it became very popular under the name Koch-Schrift, and was at times the official typeface of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (German Imperial Railway).
The font downloadable here is a reduced version (without punctuation, ligatures, numbers etc.). A commercial version of this font (with all features) is available at www.ingofonts.com.

Every typeface has a voice. Some whisper, some shout — and the best ones say exactly what you mean before a single word is read.
Pick a font that fits your idea, set it with care, and let the letters do the talking. From bold headlines to the smallest caption, good type stays clear at every size — clean curves, even spacing, and characters that feel at home together.
A well-made font carries your message across posters, screens, packaging and print without ever getting in the way. That is the quiet craft of typography: structure you feel, but rarely notice. 0123456789 — the details matter.
