Vespasian Caps

by Manfred Klein · Website

Vespasian Caps is a decorative all-caps serif from Manfred Klein with heavily eroded letterforms that look like they were carved into stone centuries ago and left to weather. The textured, crumbling edges give each character real age and gravity, recalling Roman inscriptions or worn engravings on old civic buildings. Best reserved for headlines and short display text where that antiquated, time-worn quality can do the heavy lifting.
