Old English Christmas Letter notepad
$24.00
Gothic font, also known as blackletter or Old English, originated in Western Europe during the Middle Ages, around the 12th century. It developed as a script for hand-copying manuscripts, particularly in monasteries. Its distinct, dense, and angular forms were created to maximize the use of parchment and mimic the architecture of the time, with its pointed arches and strong vertical lines. As printing emerged in the 15th century, Gothic typefaces, like Johannes Gutenberg's in the first printed Bible, gained prominence. However, by the Renaissance, its intricate style was gradually replaced by more legible, humanist typefaces like Roman and Italic scripts. Despite this, Gothic fonts retained a niche in Germany and are still associated with formal, historic, and often nostalgic or medieval-inspired designs today.
