Roman Ornate
(Sample unavailable)

A phototypeface of unclear origin. Appears to be an adaptation of an alphabet by Charles Paxton Zaner shown as Ornate Roman in the 1900 edition of The New Zanerian Alphabets. Shown as Roman Ornate with alternates (B D P R) by Fürst [Fürst c. 1976] and Typeshop [Typeshop c. 1977] (but not yet in 1973 [Typeshop 1973]).
