Influence ofBodoni 217 ing short ascenders, dwarfing the capitals, and en- larging small capitals. The characters are closely- fitted; the serifs of contiguous stems often con- nect; the stems are thin, and the hair-lines are needlessly protracted. Although this style is pre- ferred in France and Spanish America, it is not ...a favorite in the United States. Yet it is a remark- ably readable letter, and were it not for the deli- cacy of its connecting serifs would be durable.
The lower-case letters are large and clear even in their compressed form. To English and Ameri- can eyes its great defect is the reduced height of the capital letters. Its grayness of color makes it a good letter for contrast in texts that have wood-cut illustrations.
