ITC USHERWOOD



ITC Usherwood was designed by Les Usherwood and released in 1984. Les Usherwood was a prolific typeface designer creating over 200 faces for a variety uses and clients. His typefaces include Administer, Caxton (for Letraset), Flange (for Berthold), Kingsley, ITC (International Typeface Corporation) Leawood, and ITC Usherwood. Usherwood is a roman design with the classical trait of ascenders that are taller than the capitals. There are hints of Goudy, Bauer and Augustea in this typeface. ITC Usherwood is useful both for short text blocks and display work such as headlines, posters, and invitations.
