    About the family

    Cobbettslim is a narrow Clarendon with the contrast turned down. Bracketed slabs flow into stems of almost one weight, bowls are tall pinched ovals, and the whole thing looks solid and honest, like a railway timetable or the masthead of a small town paper. The figures are heavy and square shouldered. It is sturdy enough for a subhead or a short paragraph set large, and narrow enough to fit a long headline.
