Numerous historians reprint the supposed fact that, in the 1540s, Garamont cut romans Estienne, and that said romans were based on the De Aetna types. Those who expound claim that this is proven by seven of the eight variants Griffo cut appearing in the Garamont types. Nobody actually cites a source, but The Encyclopedia of Typefaces claims Morison proved it. Does anybody know the title of the essay in which Morison explained this?
