From the foundry
A digital revival of Barnum, which was the name used by Augusta (1910) and later by Nebiolo for Schmale Herold (Berthold, 1904). Features an exquisitely floral design showing the grace of Belle Epoque shapes. Its narrow character made it the leading font of many national and local Italian newspapers for decades in the 19th-20th centuries.
