Mac McGrew: Robin was designed and privately cast by R. Stanley Nelson, private press operator in Maryland. The designer says, "Like blackletter fonts this is really a minuscule with a set of uppercase forms attached. I plan to cut Lombardic caps as well, and other lowercase letters in the future. ...The rustic caps are not complete but there are a lot of problems with them. ...The typeface is experimental and not in its final form."
