Figaro – 36pt

Although Figaro itself dates to 1940, it’s one in a long line of versions of the face generically called French Clarendon Condensed, which was enormously popular in mid-19th century and now for us is strongly reminiscent of the old west. Issued by British Monotype, it has also been known as Old Towne in the United States.
