Can anyone tell me what the serif that Esquire uses. In particular in their Big Black Book Issue. I don't read this mag regularly but picked this issue up. Want to know what font it is.

An image of the typeface would help. There is always Berlow's Village: http://www.fontbureau.com/fonts/…

I dont read the magazine either, but I was taking a peak at my friend's house the other day, and has a very nice design.

Since Arena stopped it's probably the only mens magazine worth looking at. Not that sort of mens magazine you pervert, that is what the internet is for. You know what I mean.

I agree with Letters, specifically Miller Display Light:

The italic used is from the same family too

Yeah Esquire is well did, and I love Miller. Have yet to find a project for which to buy the family.

the black book is actually great. the rest of the mag/year blows.

BTW those numbers aren't exactly old style. They're small-cap ranging figures. Taller than lowercase, shorter than capitals. A 19th century industrial anomaly that pre-dated the mass movement away from true text figures. I know they're the only figure choice for the text weights of Miller, not sure about the display versions.
- I think they're neat, but troublesome if you want to set anything in caps.gramme

Yeah, thanks everybody. Black Book design is gorgeous.
