Berlin Typography on Twitter: “The best of #TypeInBerlin: The tʒ and ſʒ ligatures, together at last.” / Güntʒelstraſʒe == Güntzelstraße

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/04/17

Learned a new thing a while ago: I knew about the ſʒ ligature (that nowadays usually is written as ß), but the tʒ ligature was new to me.

So: Güntʒelstraſʒe == Güntzelstraße.

I found this on an old legal document in Germany, any idea what fonts have these kinds of ligatures for tʒ and ch/ck? from identifythisfont
