瑞士Haas Type Foundry发布了Chevalier的第一个金属型版本。在1946年，E. A. Neukomm创作了最初的设计 - 所有大写字母采用条纹设计。后来，这个家族又扩大了两种变体：一种是首字母变体，另一种是不带水平线的开放式变体。此外，所有这三种字体现在都有小写字母，增加了它们的通用性。雕花、条纹装饰和胖字形是19世纪设计的流行趋势。它们通常被用在股票和货币上，但也经常出现在信笺和名片上。这种字体家庭仍然可以在今天的各种各样的项目中使用，但是它可以完美地为许多金融、政治或法律的标志、海报或品牌添加历史元素。

The first metal type version of Chevalier was released by the Haas Type Foundry in Switzerland. In 1946, E. A. Neukomm created the original design - the striped version in all capitals. The family was later expanded to include two more variations: one of initials and the other of an open version without the horizontal lines. In addition to these, all three fonts now have small caps in the lowercase slots, increasing their versatility.The engraved, stripe decorations and fat face letterfoms were popular trends in 19th century design. They were commonly used on things such as stock certificates and money but were also frequently seen on letterheads and business cards. This type family can still be used on a wide variety of projects today, but is perfect to add a historical touch to logos, posters, or branding for many kinds of financial, political, or legal practices.
