F37 Caslon specimen from F37 Foundry

A revival or interpretation of the Caslon old-style serif tradition, produced by F37 Foundry.

About

Based on the enduring Caslon lineage, this typeface draws on one of the most recognisable traditions in English type history. The page provided insufficient detail to confirm specific weights, italics or language coverage, but the Caslon heritage points toward text-setting use with classical proportions and humanist character. F37 Foundry's take likely brings a contemporary refinement to the historical source material.

Classification

The Caslon name places this firmly in the old-style serif tradition, rooted in the eighteenth-century English typefaces of William Caslon. F37's take on the classification follows that historical lineage.
