Arnold Drescher was trained as a teacher in Auerbach in 1896 and later studied at Dresden Academy of Fine Arts from 1905 to 1907 where he became a specialised instructor for art teachers, becoming a professor in 1920.[1] As well as working freelance as a designer, he was also employed by the Staatliche Akademie für graphische Künste und Buchgewerbe (academy for graphic art and the book trades). Between 1940 and 1945, he was the Academy's director. As well as being a typographer, he was a prolific painter and illustrator, designing posters for the East German government. In 1960 he retired to Braunschweig where he later died.[2]

This is an anachronism as Typoart was created in 1948 by the merger of several other foundries. One of these foundries was Schriftguss and, as Drescher did other fonts for this foundry, it is probable that Duplex was originally cast by Schriftguss.
