Helvetica (also Neue Haas Grotesk) is a widely-used sans serif font family. It was developed in 1957 by font family designer Max Miedinger with input from Eduard Hoffmann.

Helvetica is a neo-grotesque or realist design. It is one that is influenced by the 19th century font family Akzidenz-Grotesk and other German and Swiss designs.[1] It became one of the most popular font families of the 20th century.[2]

It was originally named Neue Haas Grotesk. It was licensed by Linotype and renamed Helvetica in 1960.[3]

The Helvetica font was also used between 1993 and 1997 for TSI "Masked troubadour" idents and bumpers.[4][5]
