A bit of a Lovecraft fan, yes. Or at least I was 15 years ago. :)

Columbus was indeed dropped quickly from the ATF catalog. I think the 1912 version does show "American Italic" which is the italic version, for some odd reason.

Columbus had several alternate letters and such, so any simple digital version might not match what you see in a given print sample. For instance, the sample shown has a different "P" than the one I consider the "standard" one.

Cheers,
