Based on designs created in 1929 by Eric Gill for the Golden Cockerel Press in England, the family includes ITC Golden Cockerel Roman, ITC Golden Cockerel Italic, ITC Golden Cockerel Titling, and ITC Golden Cockerel Initials and Ornaments. The titling font, originally cast in 24 point and 36 point from identical patterns, required a more considered approach to maintain the overall integrity of this essentially pure roman form; particularly to balance and add further richness to the high ground of classic text and display styles. An equal challenge was the creation of capitals and the complete character set for the italic face, as none had been designed by Gill. Careful study of Gill's other typefaces, lettering projects and engravings in wood and stone ensured that the capitals would truly represent Gill's masterly skill and provide a perfect compliment to the lower case italic.
