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. ==External links== * [http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/linotype/itc-eras/ ITC Eras at MyFonts.com] [[Category:International Typeface Corporation typefaces]] [[Category:Linotype typefaces]] [[Category:Humanist sans-serif typefaces]] [[Category:1976 introductions]]
