Overseen by Robert Harling, Stephenson Blake’s reinterpretation of 19th-century French Antique wood type [Millington 2002]. Slightly narrower than Caslon’s French Antique but not as compressed as Page’s. Copied by Baltotype as Trylon, with added shaded styles, see Trylon Shaded.
Face’s phototype version [Face c. 1981] and Bitstream’s digitization are distinguished by squarer forms and an ‘A’ with top bar.
