Slab serif typeface
Clarendon
Clarendon is a slab serif typeface that was released in 1845 by Thorowgood and Co.
of London, a letter foundry often known as the Fann Street Foundry. The original Clarendon design is credited to Robert Besley, a partner in the foundry, and was originally engraved by punchcutter Benjamin Fox, who may also have contributed to its design. Many copies, adaptations and revivals have been released, becoming almost an entire genre of type design.
