Description

The Fell types were the main typographic resource used by the Oxford University Press between the 1670s and the mid-18th century. The Earl of Clarendon’s immensely successful History of the Rebellion, set in Fell Great Primer roman and italic, is a particularly impressive example of the work produced in this period.
