Clearface

Clearface is an Old Style, serif typeface designed by Morris Fuller Benton with the collaboration of his father Linn Boyd Benton, produced at American Type Founders in 1907, immediately following his preparation of Century Old Style. The bold was drawn first, in 1905, but the regular weight was the first to be released. Six variants were released between 1907 and 1911:

  • Clearface (1907)
  • Clearface Bold + Italic
  • Clearface Heavy + Italic
  • Clearface Italic
