The outline cut within the Caslon Doric system, drawn for display work where a hollowed nineteenth-century sans is wanted.

About

An outline display sans by Paul Barnes that sits within the wider Caslon Doric system, hollowing out the grotesque skeleton for posters, mastheads and packaging where you want a nineteenth-century British sans treated as ornament rather than text. Reads as a companion to the standard Caslon Doric widths, useful for short bursts of display typography in editorial, identity and signage work.

Classification

Commercial Type position Caslon Doric Outline as an outlined cut within the Caslon Doric system, intended for display use where a hollowed, nineteenth-century inflected grotesque is wanted.
