ABOUT







Dorsey

Mac McGrew writes: Dorsey was designed by Inland Type Foundry in 1904, and named for a printer in Dallas, Texas. It is an oldstyle antique series, much like Bookman but with slightly more contrast. Light Dorsey, introduced in 1910, is somewhat similar to Cushing Monotone, but with smaller x-height and longer ascenders. There were also condensed and extra condensed versions.

For a digital revival of Light Dorsey, see LD Display (2022, Otis Verhoeve).
