Sunday Clarendon specimen from A2-Type

A Clarendon-lineage slab serif with angular serifs and blunt terminals, spanning seven weights from Thin to Black with matching italics.

About

Drawn in the tradition of early Egyptian typefaces, Sunday Clarendon uses angular serifs and blunt terminals to give the family a mechanical, forthright character. The weight range is broad enough to cover both text and display work: the middle weights are tuned for body copy while the extreme ends, Thin and Black, are pitched squarely at headline use. Fourteen styles in total, each with a matching italic.

Classification

Directly descended from the Egyptian/Clarendon slab serif tradition, with bracket-free angular serifs and blunt terminals characteristic of early nineteenth-century Egyptian types.
