ITC Franklin Gothic
ITC Franklin Gothic is a revival and expansion of Morris Fuller Benton's 1902 Franklin Gothic, representing one of the quintessential American grotesque sans serifs. The typeface features distinctive characteristics including a tall x-height, condensed proportions, and relatively closed apertures that give it exceptional density and impact. Its letterforms exhibit subtle stroke contrast and squared-off terminals, with particularly notable features like the single-story 'a' and 'g', and the distinctive 'R' with its curved leg. This robust construction makes it incredibly versatile while maintaining strong typographic color and excellent legibility across sizes.
