Der Herausgeber versprach, sein Bestes zu tun für den schriftstellerischen Kollegen. Etwas verwunderlich wollt es ihm nun wohl bedünken, als sein Freund ihm gestand, daß das Manuskript von einem Kater, Murr geheißen, herrühre, und dessen Lebensansichten enthalte; das Wort war jedoch gegeben, und da der Eingang der Historie ihm ziemlich gut stilisiert schien, so lief er sofort, mit dem Manuskript in der Tasche.Der Herausgeber versprach, sein Bestes zu tun für den schriftstellerischen Kollegen.

Prince John held his high festival in the Castle of Ashby. This was not the same building of which the stately ruins still interest the traveller, and which was erected at a later period by the Lord Hastings, High Chamberlain of England, one of the first victims of the tyranny of Richard the Third, and yet better known as one of Shakspeare’s characters than by his historical fame. The castle and town of Ashby, at this time, belonged to Roger de Quincy.Prince John held his high festival in the Castle of Ashby.

About

Repose is a complex-sounding collection of six variations of a single uppercase-only light weight. The first sub-collection follows the spacing approach called Quad. Much like a Monospace, Quadrospace forgoes kerning in favour of simplicity and a technical awkwardness that exudes undeniable charm. The second, more conventional spacing approach is called Prop. It maintains the same dynamic proportions but with minor adjustments and one magical ingredient — kerning!

Both sub-collections come in three styles. A features roundings on all edges. B applies roundings sparingly, only on inside corners. And C disregards them entirely.

Repose demands to be used big and ostentatiously. Whether it’s large movie titles, spread out on record covers, building-sized banners, or haughty headlines.

The typeface is packed with features and supports extended Cyrillic and Latin. It offers a wide range of stylistic sets for alternative letterforms, six sets of brackets, an assortment of arrows and symbols, black- and white-circled figures as well as squared alternatives, and smart contextual alternates.
