'''Eras''' is a [[Humanist sans-serif|humanist]] [[sans-serif]] [[typeface]] designed by Albert Boton (b. April 17, 1932, Paris) and Albert Hollenstein (b. Lucerne, 1930; d. 1974), and released by the [[International Typeface Corporation]] (ITC) in 1976. A distinct and curious feature of Eras is its slight, 3-degree right tilt. Eras follows ITC's formulary of increased [[x-height]], and multiple weights from light to ultra bold. Eras is further distinct for its open bowls on the characters '''a,''' '''P,''' '''R,''' '''6,''' and '''9.''' Eras is licensed by the [[Linotype]] type foundry.
It is widely used as [[Telecom Italia Mobile|TIM]] corporate typeface.
