Regular Family:

Of these early ordinaries the earliest known to be licensed goes as far back as 1634, when Samuel Cole, comfit-maker, kept it. A kind of interest naturally goes with the spot of ground on which this the first house of public entertainment in the New England metropolis stood.

Condensed Family:

For example, Josselyn says that when a stranger went into one for the purpose of refreshing the inner man, he presently found a constable at his elbow, who, it appeared, was there to see to it that the guest called for no more liquor than seemed good for him. If he did so, the beadle peremptorily countermanded the order, himself fixing the quantity to be drank;

About:

The idea for this typeface was born after a lobster-roll filled (and butter dipped) trip to Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts. Have you been there? Even if virtually through Fallout 4? It’s incredible. It’s this convergence of history, mouthy Pats fans, and insane roads where “lanes” mean nothing and often disappear.

Cambridge is an elevated, timeless serif typeface inspired by the history and academic vibes around Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts. From the old engraved headstones of the cemeteries, to the bronze de-bossed plaques marking historical places and legacy institutions. The typeface features both a normal and condensed width, both with italics. This typeface is great for projects where you need to put on airs and make a confident yet controlled statement. This typeface family thinks it’s smart (sorry “smahht”). Did it mention it graduated magna cum laude from Harvard? Oh it did? Of course it did.
