Introduction
Georg Trump (10 July 1896 – 21 December 1985) was a German graphics, typeface and postage stamp designer, known for designs such as the book typeface Trump Mediaeval (1954), the slab serif City (c. 1931) and the condensed, industrial Schadow. Trump fought in both WWI and WWII, the latter which left him severely wounded. He studied under Friedrich Hermann Ernst Schneidler, and was a fellow lecturer with Jan Tschichold in Munich.
