BMC VIII 232: "116G. [P. 1], large text type, bearing some resemblance to 'Costerian' faces and also to type 130 [P. 1] of Heliae
at Beromünster (= Type 1:130G bei Helias Heliae (Beromünster, Offizin 1)). Many of the capitals are of peculiar form; the head of A curves over to the left, B and E are simple
outline letters, with sharp angles, H and V have inner dot, I and L have two thorns to the left, O is open at the top,
S has double middle curve. The lower case is angular; a has a small upper bowl, b, h, p, q and other letters are narrow,
there are three sorts of e, one very broad, one perhaps made of ē, all with steep loop-line, m, n, u are wtde and heavy,
t has a sharply pointed top, initial v is roughly drawn, wide and open at the top, ꝯ has a wide flat foot. The single
hyphen, sometimes sloping downwards, is seldom used. In use in 1473. By 1476 the type has become 116(119)G (= Type 1*:119G)
