My font is Rockwell. Frank Hinman Pierpont and his design team at Monotype designed the font in 1933 as a slab-serif. Pierpont is also known for his many technical inventions and improvements in the Monotype machine park and for his contribution to the development of the revival typeface Plantin.
Rockwell has geometric construction whereby both the capital 'O' and the lowercase 'o' are almost circular. Another characteristic is the upper serif of the capital 'A.' The serifs have the same thickness as the other lines and there is almost no thick-thin contrast. In general, the bold styles are most often used for headings and larger display texts.
