Commemorates the centenary of the creation of Johnston for London Underground in 1916, and the 90th anniversary of the creation of Gill Sans in 1926
Edward Johnston (1872–1944) and Eric Gill (1882–1940) were originators of two of the world’s most enduring typefaces. Johnston still stands as London’s primary ‘wayfinding’ lettering, most notably on the London Underground, while Gill Sans is the type of choice within many public and private organisations across the UK today, including the BBC and John Lewis.
