- This face was shown as wood type by J.E. Hamilton and William Baker in their 1887 Specimens of Wood Type.
- This cut of Antique Light Face Extended Reversed was not shown in either American Wood Type or the folio.
Type name used by manufacturer:
Hamilton Antique Light Face Extended Reversed [133]
This is the Hamilton cut.
It is unlikely that this face was only produced by Hamilton, as all manufacturers offered a reverse version of their types, but the Hamilton and Baker catalog of 1887 was the first to show a specimen of this type.
