Slab serif fonts
As the name suggests these typefaces typically have slab-like or square and unbracketed serifs (there are exceptions to this rule; e.g. Clarendons). Slab serif fonts first appeared in the early 1800s. Some are suitable for extended texts, for things like books and editorial design (magazines & newspapers), while others perform beautifully in display settings, logos, branding, and pretty much anything else. Slab serifs also appear in the broader Serifs category. For other kinds of serifs take a look at CEDARS+
