ROCKWELL

Slab serifs in general may remind readers of older poster fonts and Western movie para-phernalia. Early slab serif fonts were created in the nineteenth century, usually from wood, which was notoriously hard to carve into the small details required for intricate type. Slab serif lettering rapidly became very popular in any areas in which wooden faces were com-monly used. Later, smaller versions were delib-erately cut in metal as an alternative to the reg-ular serif and sans serif fonts available at the time. One of the earliest manufacturers of such type was the Inland Type Foundry, founded in 1892 by the three Schraubstadter brothers.

In January, 1910, ITF released a face known as Litho Antique™, created by William Schraub-stadter. Later that decade, the font and several other similar types became popular around greater Europe, so American Type Found-ers decided to reissue the font. Morris Fuller Benton added a number of new characters to

Rockwell

the original Litho Antique face and the modi-fied result, named Rockwell Antique™, was published by ATF in 1931. Later the same year, Benton redrew the font in a heavier style, nam-ing it Stymie™ Bold. When Frank Hinman Pierpont, in col-laboration with Monotype, decided to create and release the Rockwell typeface family in 1934, several unique characteristics, including differences in spacing, letter weight and subtle changes in glyph formation, were included.

Even so, the Stymie Bold and Rockwell designs are often confused for one another, not only because of their similarities but because of the fact that in an early Monotype document, the Rockwell font was accidentally referred to as Stymie™ Bold. While there are subtle differ-ences between the two faces, this mistake con-tinues to cause confusion today.
