Fairfax Station Nf Font

The first in a series of “Storybook Fonts,” patterned after typefaces commonly used in children’s books around the turn of the twentieth century. This font gets its letterforms from Caslon Openface, but the incising has been eliminated, the stroke broadened and the serifs rounded; it gets its name from a city in Northern Virginia, for no reason other than the name highlights some of the font’s characteristic charm so well.
