Mala Tempora Currunt
Mala Tempora Currunt is a rotunda blackletter in the manner of 15th and 16th century printed books, drawn after the Gans foundry's 1928 Gótico Cervantes with rounder bowls than northern gothic types. It has one weight and stylistic sets that swap in historical r and d forms, so use it for book titles, labels, and period pieces rather than long text.
