Big Caslon CC

Unlike the consistent text faces by William Caslon, the three largest sizes made by the Caslon foundry are uncommon. Perhaps they were the work of another — or he was in a bold mood? While Caslon’s text types have been revived, the forceful and a touch eccentric display sizes had no revival until Carter & Cone’s Big Caslon. This version, designed by Matthew Carter, expands on the timelessness of the display face and allows for new uses. Available in Regular, Bold, and Black and companion italics.
