After Stephenson Blake acquired the Reed foundry, Clarendon came with it. In 1956 [Letter-Founder, Spring 1956] [Reichardt 2011], the company refreshed and expanded the family as Consort. The Bold is based on the original 1845 Clarendon [Millington 2002]. An italic credited to Peter Bell followed in 1958 [Reichardt 2011]. Punch-cut proportionally for each size (there were no compromises as with other pantographed clarendons) [Miklavčič].

Red Rooster revived the Condensed in 1994, but some letters differ significantly from the metal originals (‘g’, ‘7’, tittles).
