Sutro Shaded is a display slab typeface household. This typeface has 6 styles and was released by Parkinson Type Design.

My love for Piece Serifs started in the early 1960s in Kansas City when Rob Roy Kelly was at the Kansas City Art Institute, teaching and composing his book on American Wood Type. I got to know him just well adequate to be allowed access to his incredible collection of wood type and wood type catalogs.

Later, in the 1970s I tried to re-create an old Nebiolo Egiziano for Roger Black at New West Magazine. And, again for Roger, in the 1980s, I created a Slab Serif logo design for Newsweek Magazine.

Finally, in 2003 I started developing the Sutro Household. Over the last years I have actually been dressing up the initial font styles and adding a bunch of brand-new ones.

Sutro Shaded existed for a couple of years as a one color, laid out, drop-shadowed screen font. It looked like it was simply dying for a little color. I included five more fonts: Fill, Gradient, Hatching, Rules and Hi-Lite. These fonts can be utilized in various combinations to achieve numerous effects.

Font Family:
· Sutro Shaded Primary
· Sutro Shaded Fill
· Sutro Shaded Gradient
· Sutro Shaded Hatching
· Sutro Shaded Rules
